 | | suenteus po 147: <edbermac> You're thinking of Iggy and the Stooges. |

|

 | | wordfunph: -1 for Timman after 6 rounds..
come on Jan! |
|
| Aug-14-10 | | percyblakeney: Another loss for Timman, in 26 moves with white this time, but he stays ahead of Robson who lost his third in a row today. |
|
| Aug-14-10 | | percyblakeney: Robson-Acs is worth a look once it is added, a couple of early piece sacrifices from Acs. |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | unsound: It looks like Robson has good chances to leapfrog Timman today. |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | percyblakeney: In the women's section 69-year-old Nona Gaprindashvili shares the lead with one round to go. |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | percyblakeney: Only one move seems to win for Timman, but he had seen enough Monday puzzles to play Qd5:

|
| Aug-15-10 | | unsound: Thanks <pb>. That did not go anything like as I anticipated, but Robson did indeed win. |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | percyblakeney: <Robson did indeed win> Yes, his taking chances and avoiding the draw earlier in the game paid off in the end, but a bit sad to see a once great player like Timman think for so long and fail to find a move like Bc4 in that last diagram... |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | unsound: Agreed; I was hoping Robson would do well, but not because of something like that from a former great. |
|
| Aug-15-10 | | Mameluk: Quite a one man show, isn´t it? |
|
| Aug-16-10 | | Don Cossacks: Laznicka on hot winning streak. |
|
| Aug-16-10 | | percyblakeney: Laznicka finished what was an excellent event for him with an underpromotion against Robson. |
|
| Aug-16-10 | | percyblakeney: Timman finally got a win, he must have been unhappy with the blunder against Robson and suddenly played as in the good old days, beating 2700+ Almasi. |
|
| Aug-16-10 | | Astardis: Gaprindashvili won the women's tournament. Quite impressive, sort of a female Korchnoi! |
