Jul-28-12		waustad: Did Moro have to give back his appearance fee?

Jul-28-12		bernieno: It does not look a clear win for white now.

Jul-28-12		Jack Kerouac: Chess bonanza!('course I'm premium).

Jul-28-12		Marmot PFL: Looked at the games 3 hours ago, and they all looked drawish. Could end up that way.

Jul-28-12		bubuli55: I think the square for the Black R is e7 :)

Jul-28-12		haydn20: I thought 29. Rfd1 caused more problems for Black.

Jul-28-12		bernieno: Perhaps white should have played 29. Rfd1, his pieces would have been very active.

Jul-28-12		Travis Bickle: <Jack Kerouac> Hey Jack, Nostrovia!

Jul-28-12		haydn20: Black is aggressive to a fault. 38....Rxd2+ seems safe.

Jul-28-12		luzhin: If 41.a3 Nc4!

Jul-28-12		haydn20: White will end up one pawn up with a draw.

Jul-28-12		Eggman: <<White will end up one pawn up with a draw.>> It'll take awhile, but surely White should win this.

Jul-28-12		sneaky pete: 46... f5 47.Rc2 Rxc2 48.Bxc2 Bxe3 (49.Bb3 Nd2 or 49.Bd3 Nb2)

Jul-28-12		haydn20: Unless he blunders, Black should be able to blockade a Kingside Pawn and his advanced a Pawn shd draw.

Jul-28-12		haydn20: It might have been time to slip in 49. e4.

Jul-28-12		Penguincw: Bologan looking to salvage half a point.

Jul-28-12		dylam: he just might do it...

Jul-28-12		Bishoprick: Anyone see a path to a win for either side?

Jul-28-12		Marmot PFL: Well the only way black could win is on the clock.

Jul-28-12		Marmot PFL: Black's king may be too exposed now. He created a problems for himself with f5.

Jul-28-12		Clodhopper: Does anyone know where you can get the pgn for the Biel Master tournament? Shankland is doing well there, tied for 2nd through 7th with 4.5 out of 6.

Jul-28-12		Clodhopper: Just answered my own question - on the offical site, the pgn link for the grandmaster tournament gets you the master youtrnament games as well.

Jul-28-12		tpstar: Giri earned that one - keep up the pressure, then boom. Too bad for Bologan after all that tough defense.

Jul-28-12		Eyal: 5th loss in a row for poor Bolozevich.

Jul-28-12		Bobby Fiske: Impressive end game win by Giri. Hats off!
