  Joshka: Draws like this make me wonder why did they even contest the battle, maybe I'm missing something.
Jul-28-05   Acoona: Like our friend <csmath> said a while ago : <Why should he ever play any game with black pieces at all? Why not just immediately call from the hotel room and agree to draw before the game starts, that way he can save himself time and go back to sleeping. After all black is always inferior on move #1.>

I agree

Jul-28-05   aw1988: Adorjan may disagree.
Jul-28-05   hintza: <Like our friend <csmath> said a while ago...> Nice...
Jul-28-05   Orbitkind: Two of the lamest people in the chessworld draw pathetically in a sponsored tournament.
Jul-28-05   Butterflies: <Joshka>

  OhioChessFan: How exactly is this a CK?
Jul-28-05   yoozum: It's a Caro-Kann because black replies with 1...c6, even though white played the English as opposed to e4.
