Aug-19-10    Illogic: Fressinet has been the sole winner the last two rounds. He's in the driver's seat though he does still have to play Bacrot. Aug-19-10    HeMateMe: Half these guys appear to be Russians. Maybe Boris Spassky could throw his hat in the ring? He lives in Paris. Aug-19-10    tamar: Edouard won a sharp miniature against Tkachiev, so has caught Fressinet. 11th round pairings Bacrot-Fressinet Sokolov-Edouard Aug-19-10    Marmot PFL: Every player has at least 50% draws, most more (Dorfman 100%). Is this typical of French chess? Aug-19-10    SamAtoms1980: Er.... cinquième? :-) Aug-19-10    Dredge Rivers: Actually, this is the Freedom Championship! :) Aug-19-10    ganstaman: The French Defense is currently +2 -2 =2 in this championship if I'm counting correctly. I was hoping for somewhat better. Aug-20-10    paavoh: @ganstaman: 50% score for any defence is pretty good, on average White wins 55%. Aug-20-10    Valmy: <HeMateMe>, it is not 50% from Russian origine, it's only 33% (4 on 12). Aug-20-10    Valmy: About BACROT-FRESSINET round 11, BACROT is +6 -0 = 3 vs FRESSINET. Lets see... Aug-20-10    alexrawlings: How come Maxime Vachier-Lagrave isn't playing? Aug-20-10    alexmagnus: <Every player has at least 50% draws, most more (Dorfman 100%).> And Dorfman's draws are mostly quick: 21 13 30 13 12 16 30 32 43 17 Aug-21-10    Atking: The "Dortman". "The man who can sleep during a game." He wakes up "Draw?". Aug-21-10    whiteshark: He wakes up -<the Critical Moment>- he also wrote a book about it. Aug-21-10    Tabanus: The French championship 9-21 August 2010, ranking crosstable after 11 rounds: http://www.echecs.asso.fr/Resultat2..., after which Edouard lost the rapid playout today 0.5-1.5 vs the new champion, GM Laurent Fressinet. Aug-21-10    Tabanus: And with Fressinet's wife winning the women's section, there is no doubt who is France's strongest chess couple.
