Jul-30-10  redwhitechess: is this serious? the last position white can do perpetual check in my sight. how bad the time trouble here? I would go checking the enemy rather than resign if I still got 2 seconds.

  sisyphus: From the FIDE site:

<Playing Sicilian defense, White avoided main lines. Black tried to use it to slowly turn the tide to its advantage. Though White, being caught in a desperate situation, put up a strong resistance, Black seemed not to give them any chance. Only the big mistake 51…Qc2?? could lead them to defeat – but at the moment White resigned.

Betul: It was a very difficult match, especially for my defense.

Xue: I played some bad moves in the opening. I think in the Middlegame I had some chances bud I didn’t play well and played very quickly when Betul had time troubles. In the last position I made very big mistake – I took a Rook. It could lead to defeat. I feel I lucky today - anyway, for me it is a good beginning.>

Jul-30-10  dx9293: Wow...Yildiz won't be able to sleep for awhile after this.
Jul-30-10  dx9293: I guess Zhao Xue deserved the win though...she played like Capablanca until the last move!
Jul-31-10  whiteshark: I'm speechless (and this doesn't happen very often)
Jul-31-10  whiteshark: White had only 24 seconds left in the final position.
Jul-31-10  percyblakeney: The final position will probably make it into some book with the question: Did white find the mate in four or blunder by taking the repetition draw? :-)
Jul-31-10  redwhitechess: a mate indeed, and an easy one. maybe Betul try to go a 'perfect' score again ;)
Jul-31-10  hellopolgar: as far as i am concerned, the last move wasn't actually played, it was a transmitting error.
