< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 3 OF 3 ·  Later Kibitzing> May-29-10    whiteshark: What happened? May-29-10    DCP23: They fixed the transmission for the 2nd game. May-29-10    vonKrolock: Second is another slow Ruy - Jako as black appears to arrive to endgame with a whole plus - oposite coloured s, but a couple of s too May-29-10    anandrulez: All 4 games draw May-29-10    DCP23: 2nd blitz game ALSO drawn. May-29-10    vonKrolock: Lost the in time scramble... May-29-10    kellmano: OK the second one was definitely drawn. Watching it in video is not totally devoid of interest, even if you don't know where the pieces are. May-29-10    randzo: what a players i wish to play blitz like them May-29-10    whiteshark: 2nd blitz ended in a draw. May-29-10    DCP23: Armageddon now! Karjakin plays White with 5 mins and must win, Jako plays Black with 4 mins and wins with a draw. May-29-10    kellmano: Awesome. This will be the first time i've ever seen an armageddon game live. Well, hopefully May-29-10    kellmano: Another Ruy May-29-10    randzo: whoo whole opening in 5 seconds :D May-29-10    DCP23: <randzo: whoo whole opening in 5 seconds :D> Well, they know it well enough to play in 0.5 seconds, unfortunately they just can't move their hands that fast ;) May-29-10    kellmano: And Karjakin wins! Great stuff. May-29-10    DCP23: Damn. Karjak wins. May-29-10    vonKrolock: another symmetrical endgame ... the faster will win - boring chess, interesting time scrambble - Kariakin won - short circuit in the diagonal, Jako lost his Bishop in a one move blunder May-29-10    whiteshark: at the end a tactical shot decided, <63.Rxe5!> click for larger view May-29-10    DCP23: Earlier today, some of the GMs knocked out in rounds 1 & 2 gave a blindfold simul, each playing 2 local kids from a chess school. GMs won all the games (doh). Photos here: http://worldcup.pivdenny.com/ru/ind... May-29-10    wordfunph: <DCP23: Damn. Karjak wins.> i thank <loanshark> for not giving me cb! my bet should have been Jako.. :) May-29-10    Marvy: I wish Naka was in this. I this he's one of the best speed players around. May-30-10    Don Cossacks: <Marvy>Karjakin will maul him. May-30-10    Chessforeva: 3D games:http://chessforeva.appspot.com/C0_p... Jun-08-10    znsprdx: <CG> why is there no results table? Jun-09-10    AuN1: karjakin won Jump to page #    (enter # from 1 to 3) < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 3 OF 3 ·  Later Kibitzing>
