 | | Viewer Deluxe: Antoaneta Stefanova sent her knight on quite a journey g6-f8-e6-g7-e8-f6-g8-e7-g6 in her game vs. Arakhamia-Grant in round 6. I can’t believe this has happened in OTB game. Take a look (board #2) http://chesstuff.blogspot.com/2010/... |

| Mar-11-10 | | DiscoJew: <HeMateMe: I believe this page is now open for general comments, Shakesperean diatribes and Japanese Haiku poetry.> What about a little after dinner raconteuring? |

| | HeMateMe: Ok. Why don't we start an investment company that guarantees a 20% return for all investors? I'm sure the chessplayers here will trust us... |
|
| Mar-11-10 | | alexapple: How many players will qualify for the Women's world Championship in Turkey? |
|

 | | DarthStapler: I notice that the description on the front page lists the name Kosintseva twice, I know there are two of them playing but to the less informed readers they might think it was a mistake, so perhaps adding the player's first initial before one of them would be prudent. |
|
| Mar-12-10 | | Atking: <Viewer Deluxe:> Yes this knights moves are amazing but I'm more impressed by this light Bishop still alive even closed in the queen side. Almira does pretty well too. |
|
| Mar-16-10 | | alexapple: Cmilyte got a GM norm, I think. |
|
Mar-17-10
 | | sisyphus: Cramling has a winning advantage over Cmilyte as the first time control is reached. She could get the title clear. |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | Karpova: Both Kosintseva sisters won their last round games so Tatiana finishes with 8.0/11 and Nadezhda with 7.5/11. |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | percyblakeney: N Ziaziulkina (2188) played two 2500 opponents and won against both (with black). |
|
Mar-17-10
| | sisyphus: It looks like there will be five players tied for the bronze at 8 points: Kosintseva (Tatiana), Sebag, Zhukova, Socko, and Dembo. Tiebreaks tomorrow at 9:00 UT. |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | waustad: Congrats to Pia Cramling for winning her second EICC. She also beat Cmilyte for the first time. |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | percyblakeney: Cramling hasn't lost much strength with age when she still can win such a top event. |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | percyblakeney: Cramling and Kasparov are almost exactly the same age, only ten days between them. |
|
Mar-17-10
| | kurtrichards: Maybe Kasparov should entertain some thoughts of coming back to play chess. :) |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | weisyschwarz: Tough luck for Cmilyte. She was undefeated until the last round. Those early draws are deadly. Too bad for the beautiful Lilit Mkrtchian. She had a terrible tournament run this year. |
|
Mar-18-10
| | sisyphus: IM Dembo beat GM-elect Zhukova in the first round of the medal tiebreaks. |
|
Mar-18-10
| | sisyphus: GM Socko beat Dembo in the second round, 1.5-0.5. |
|
Mar-18-10
| | sisyphus: Sebag beat Kosintseva, 1.5-0.5. She'll face Socko for the bronze medal at 15:30 UT. |
|
| Mar-18-10 | | stanleys: Ziaziulkina mated Scripchenko in the last blitz game and qualified for the WC.Congratulations |
|
Mar-18-10
| | sisyphus: Socko beat Sebag with White in the first finals game. |
|
Mar-18-10
| | sisyphus: It looks like Socko held the second game against Sebag to win the bronze medal. |
|
| Mar-19-10 | | Kopenhagener: I clearly remember the petite girl playing in Copenhagen Open 1980, a tournament won by Smyslov. She was the sister of Dan Cramling - today Dan must be considered the brother of Pia. Many congratulations ! |
