Aug-04-08    shr0pshire: Look at all of those decisive games. My eyes must be deceiving me. Aug-04-08    OneArmedScissor: It seems Nakamura did alright. Aug-05-08    apple pi: Najer and Naiditsch were awesome as well! Aug-05-08    KKDEREK: uauhh Too many black victories..Impressive Aug-05-08    randzo: great tournament for Nepomniatchi after great result in Dortmund. Aug-05-08    govtissue: this was a rapid tournament with 20 +5 time control Aug-05-08    govtissue: and Nakamura finished joint 3rd with 9/11 (+8 -1 =2) after winning the Chess960 tournament with the same score earlier in the week. Aug-05-08    DeltaHawk: What?!? Another 1990 player wins a major tournament? Coincidence??? Aug-05-08    ILikeFruits: you calling me a liar boy.... Aug-07-08    dumbgai: Judging just by the results and not the names of the players, I'd swear this was some sort of amateur tournament. What GMs play that many decisive games? Aug-07-08    percyblakeney: Ordix Open winner Nepomniachtchi qualified for next year's so called rapid world championship. I suppose it will be another small tournament and that they have skipped the system with challenger vs champion as in Anand's matches against Shirov, Polgar, Grischuk and Radjabov.
