Dec-22-08		YoungEd: All the pawns still on the board at the end! It seems as though Gossip hoped for 13. hxg4, when ...Qxg3 would follow, winning a pawn and disrupting White's kingside. The actual 13. Qf3 pretty much thwarts Black, unless he wants to give up B+N for R+P.

Jan-12-09		sillybilly47: Solidly played by Baird. Man was this a long tournament.
