< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 4 OF 4 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jan-29-10    Ladolcevita: <keypusher> Indeed! It seems Muzychuk had made a wrong choice in the opening. Jan-29-10    Willem Wallekers: The last draw in this group was on Tuesday. Jan-29-10    dumbgai: With 2 rounds to go and a 1.5 point lead, Li Chao can guarantee himself at least a share of first by making a draw tomorrow. With a win he can secure clear first. Jan-29-10    An Englishman: Good Evening: Interesting statistic that might only interest me--the last 18 games have included 0 draws. Which means I probably just cursed the next round to end with 100% draws. Jan-29-10    ruelas007: And you also have un-cursed the next round but whoops! i have just re-cursed it again... damn, i think i have just.... wait, letīs just leave it like that ok? Jan-30-10    notyetagm: Congrats to Li Chao for winning Corus (C Group) (2010) with a round to spare! Jan-30-10    notyetagm: Corus (C Group) (2010)/Daniele Vocaturo Daniele Vocaturo has been amazing in this tournament: White +6 =0 -0 Black +0 =2 -4 Yes, that is correct. Vocaturo is <6/6(!)> with the White pieces but only <1/6> with the Black pieces. He's like two different players, 3400 with White and 2000 with Black. Anyone care to compute his exact TPRs with White and Black? Jan-30-10    chessmoron: Congrats to China's Li Chao (b) and punch himself through to next years B group. Excellent game against Ray Robson. Jan-30-10    notyetagm: <chessmoron: Congrats to China's Li Chao (b) and punch himself through to next years B group. Excellent game against Ray Robson.> I still cannot figure out how Robson missed a mate-in-1 with a 30-second increment on his clock.

Jan-31-10    Don Cossacks: I told you before guys that Li will win... Jan-31-10    Ladolcevita: <don cossacks> Hey,Lichao and Pengzhaoqing are good friends,it's said (by a chinese chess player in his mini blog)that if Lichao didnt win the champion in advance,Peng would agree on a draw in the final round,but if Lichao did,they two would really play for chess itself:) Jan-31-10    Don Cossacks: < Ladolcevita: <don cossacks> Hey,Lichao and Pengzhaoqing are good friends,it's said (by a chinese chess player in his mini blog)that if Lichao didnt win the champion in advance,Peng would agree on a draw in the final round,but if Lichao did,they two would really play for chess itself:) > Thanks for the information Ladolcevita,Li brought honor to Chinese chess again: )Looking forward to Corus B 2011! Jan-31-10    Ladolcevita: <don> Yes!!I hope he does well next year in GroupB!!Let's make a wish:) Jan-31-10    waustad: Congrats to Grandelius and Vocaturo for all of the decisive games. After today's win, now Vocaturo is tied for second, pending the result of Gupta - Robson. Jan-31-10    Whitehat1963: Is Li Chao the only player rated above 2600 in this crowd? Jan-31-10    ChessXin: Li Chao is too strong for this group. He should have played in Group B. Jan-31-10    Whitehat1963: My point exactly. Jan-31-10    wolfmaster: Congrats to Li Chao! Getting +7 in an immensely strong field (everyone over 2200) is no small achievement. Jan-31-10    ketchuplover: The USA contingent(3 players)finished a combined even(wins and losses) Jan-31-10    notyetagm: UNBELIEVABLE: Vocaturo went 7/7(!) with White in this tournament. Jan-31-10    KingG: Also pretty unbelievable that he didn't win with a score like that with White. Jan-31-10    notyetagm: <KingG: Also pretty unbelievable that he didn't win with a score like that with White.> Yes. White +7 =0 -0 Black +0 =2 -4 It's like Vocaturo played <3500> chess with White and <1900> chess with Black!
