Jan-31-09		dumbgai: Brutal attack by White. Grabbing pawns that open up lines against your king is always risky business.

Jan-31-09		Strongest Force: A very pleasant surprise! Maybe Yifan can get that even score i hoped she could get by winning her last round game!

Feb-01-09		Ashram64: very strong play by yi fan, should get an award for this game

Feb-01-09		syracrophy: Humiliating for Vallejo! What a shame of black's play! A complete mess! 17...h2?, 18...xh3?, 19...xg4? What the heck was thinking this guy! Brilliant game of the chinese girl!
