| Ken MacGillivray: To SirChrislove; well you didn't err in your claim that she lost to an insane rule. The bizarre zero forfeit rule was a brainwaive of the FIDE President but despite a disastrous and unpopular test run at the 2008 Dresden Olympics, the new rule was approved by compliant FIDE officials earlier mthis year. |

| Zhijun: <kurtrichards>
Sorry to make you misunderstood my kibitz.
<If you are a objective person,you can draw a right conclusion except that you don¡¯t want to like <mindanalyzer>..> "YOU" in this sentence means any person who are not just and objectively,but not you,I apology for the understanding because of my broken English. <Of cause there are some cheating and doping in China>
Btw, I don't mentioned the Chinese cheater's name because they are obscure,even I pointed out them,you would probably forget them immediately,but You will remember CARL LEWIS ,Ben Johson,Maria,Jones, that's all. If you want,I can give some names of Chinese cheater,I hope you can remember them,:-)
Ouyan Kunpeng,Wu Yanyan,Swimming;
Gao Xiaoning,cyclist;
Yin Lili,Song Liqing,Liu Yunfeng,Cui Danfeng,Zhou Wei,Yang Chunlei,Liu Jing,LiJi,athletes;
and ETC.
If you know Chinese,you can google for more and more cheaters.:-) |

| Manic: <Ken MacGillivray>
Did you take that from the SMH in Sydney? =D
Indeed that is correct. For those interested I believe Kirsan
decided to trial it after he had to wait for his opponent and proceeded to lose. |

|
| Ken MacGillivray: <Manic> You are absolutely correct; these were the words of GM Ian Rogers but they expressed my views perfectly, except Ian put it more succinctly and better than I could have. |
|
| Jun-21-09 |
| Manic: <Ken MacGillivray> It wouldn't be surpising if that view was shared by almost all chess players. It was from Rogers' column last year I found out that when and why Kirsan introduced it as well (Rogers' showed the same disdain for it then as he does now) |

| ghyanoki: Is Yifan Hou going to become stronger or is she going to maintain this level? In the last year, comparing the july rankings, has only improved 27 points. |

| Boomie: <ghyanoki: Is Yifan Hou going to become stronger or is she going to maintain this level? In the last year, comparing the july rankings, has only improved 27 points.> If she "only" improves 27 points per year, then when she turns 20, she will "only" be rated about 2725. Heh. |

| autobezerk: http://www.chessbase.com/espanola/n... ¡Así fue Villarrobledo 2009!
A menudo los torneos los ganan los valientes y eso fue lo que ocurrió en la XXIV edición del Torneo Internacional de Ajedrez de Villarrobledo, disputado los días 25 y 26 de julio. El joven de origen letón y nacionalizado alemán Arkadij Naiditsch consiguió la victoria sin necesidad de desempate. Y es que en la última ronda frenó la ambición de Ruslan Ponomariov, que ya sabe lo que es ganar este torneo, con el Ataque Keres de la variante Scheveningen de ña Siciliana, al mismo tiempo que Vadim Milov y Ni Hua pactaban tablas en el primer tablero, dejando de esa forma todo el protagonismo para el alemán. |

| akhc: 4.5/6. Just 1/2 point behind the leaders. However she's still only performing on par with her rating as a result of playing lower ranked opposition and she's playing yet another IM rated 2498 in the next round. Would be nice to see a strong finish in the last 3 rounds and pick up a few rating points running into NH. |

|
| Nov-04-09 |
| Ghost of Merlin: I won't be surprised if she could make it to the second round. She has the talent to make it. |
