Sep-28-05		capanegra: 31…Bf6?? was a lamentable blunder in an totally won position. Had Chigorin won this game, ceteris paribus, he would have shared with Pillsbury the first place of Hastings 1895…with a favorable head-to-head result, and with more wins with Black.

Feb-20-08		Knight13: Bird came in 15th place out of 22, and I think drawing someone who got second place is good enough for him
