Jun-09-13 | | jamesmaskell: <messachess> You are thinking of the Blitz. This one was 15mins plus 10 secs per move. |
 |
Jun-09-13
 | | Eyal: Results of the first blitz day (16 rounds [8x2] out of 30): Le & Nepomniachtchi leading with 12, followed by Ponomariov with 11.5; Grischuk at the moment only in shared 8th-12th with 10. http://wrbc2013.fide.com/wp-content... |

 |
Jun-09-13 | | notyetagm: <wordfunph: superb perf by Nepo, +8-0=2 who can beat that?> What a collapse by Nepo! He did the same thing a few years back in Corus C. Corus Group C (2007) |
 |
Jun-09-13 | | Xeroxx: Feels like there's a few players missing from this event. |
 |
Jun-09-13 | | Illogic: Surprised to see Andreikin at 'only' 8.5/16 |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: <Illogic: Surprised to see Andreikin at 'only' 8.5/16> Not out of it yet. He just needs to get white hot like Shark did in the Rapid Ch. |

 | | brankat: Now after round #15, how many more rounds are there left? Thank You. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | anandrulez: Brankat I though u are a logical person jk 16 rounds more to go |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | anandrulez: Usually they divide these tournaments into half for 2 days or 1/3 for 3 days |

Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: FIDE World Rapid Championship (2013)
Wow, check out the *incredible* <DOUBLE BLUNDER> at the end of the Round 20 game Grischuk vs Pomomariov! http://chessbomb.com/o/2013-wbccham... Grischuk blundered back his extra piece with 16 0-0??, based on the <SKEWER> down the e-file 16 ... ♕e7x♗e2! 17 ♖f1-e1. Ponomariov resigned(!!), as Grischuk expected. Both of these 2700s overlooked that Black has the resource 17 ... ♕e2-b5!= and the Black b5-queen now <PROTECTS> the Black e8-rook instead of <INTERPOSING> on e2! Egads!! |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: Grischuk vs Ponomariov FIDE World Blitz Championship (20) 2013 16 0-0?? gives back the extra piece but 16 ... 1-0 ?? resigns an equal position! |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: FIDE World Rapid Championship (2013)
Another huge blunder by Ponomariov, in Round 24 versus NNTS. http://chessbomb.com/o/2013-wbccham... Pono (Black) wanted to advance his passed a4-pawn, which was blocked by his a3-bishop. So he played 49 ... ♗a3-b2?? which <LEFT BEHIND> his b4-rook and the <UNDEFENDED> Black b4-rook then dropped off to the simple <DISCOVERED ATTACK> 50 f4-f5+! ♔g6xf5 51 ♖h4x♖b4 , winning a *whole* rook. |

Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: FIDE World Rapid Championship (2013)
LQL wins the blitz championship!!! |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | Arcturar: Well that was unexpected. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | Ezzy: <Arcturar: Well that was unexpected.> Le Quang Liem was the number 5 seed. So I suppose not too unexpected. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | Arcturar: Yeah, I suppose so. A 1.5 point difference between him and Grischuk after 30 games doesn't say anything anyways. WCC titles have to be conteated in match play for Rapid and Blitz too, imo. Of course, congrats to Le! He is a very good blitz player. But I still rank him below Grischuk, Karjakin, Carlsen, and Nakamura (who I think stand roughly in that order). At least Grischuk won his title last year where the top players were actually present. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | notyetagm: <Arcturar: ... At least Grischuk won his title last year where the top players were actually present.> That's not LQL's fault. The top players are playing at the Tal Memorial this week and did not want to tire themselves out first by playing this event. Very poor timing by the organizers. Next year they need to coordinate better with the other major events like the Tal to make sure there is no overlap so the top players can participate in the WR&BC. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | MarkFinan: Natalia Pogonina is on my facebook friends and she just posted on my news feed that Quang Liem won! |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | MarkFinan: My bad, she said he won the world blitz :| |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | Arcturar: The FIDE-Kasparov split was not Khalifman's fault either, but that did not make him an undisputed champion. If players like Radjabov are even publicly criticizing the planning of the tournament, then Mamedyarov and Le are definately "disputed". I doubt they consider themselves better than Carlsen/Karjakin anyways. Also, the tournament format is also a bit silly. Like Kasparov suggests for the Candidates, there should be a match between the Top 2 finishers. Or, in a field this large, a Quadruple RR between the Top 4. Or that PLUS a 30 game match versus the incumbent champion (Grischuk). It just seems to me that the Blitz and Rapid WCCs will be changing every cycle without any controls like these, which greatly devalues the titles. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | Arcturar: Finally, there is no reason this has to happen every year. I think a bi-annual cycle is the best, and think the current blitz/rapid WCC should get some rights (as in classical) to balance the randomness of the event (caused by both the format and the inherent drawback of shorter time controls). If Grischuk is higher rated in blitz than Le, finished barely behind him here, and already won the WCC ahead of actual top players, he should be given a chance to beat Le in a match. I think he would be the heavy favourite. |
 |
Jun-10-13 | | usuario x: a lot of random players this year like in an open tournament, but still the top players remain ahead. that if someone had some doubts about the strength of playes based on his rating |
 |
Jun-10-13
 | | Eyal: <like in an open tournament> Well, basically it <was> an open tournament, for +2500 players (in any of the three rating lists - standard, rapid, or blitz). |
