Oct-29-08   thegoldenband: Surely this game score can't be correct?
Oct-30-08   anandrulez: i think so too ...ratna is a strong player .
Oct-30-08   Toastman: <thegoldenband> why not? White is 400elo lower and in a pretty bad position, so why wouldn't he resign?
Nov-02-08   thegoldenband: Toastman -- it's not the result or length that concerns me, but rather the fact that many of the moves after 7...h6 make no sense at all, particularly 8. h4?? (which drops a piece for zero compensation). Either one or both players were under the influence, or there are some missing/incorrect moves.
