| Oct-24-16 | | WorstPlayerEver: Giri Memorial |
|
| Oct-24-16 | | starry2013: More like the Giri Lives Tournament. |
|
| Oct-24-16 | | WorstPlayerEver: <starry2013>
It was a reference to the Candidates 2016.. Giri Lives actually goes like this: Tal Memorial (2016) |
|
| Oct-24-16 | | Pantagruel: As it stands right now, half the field is tied for first place. |
|
Oct-24-16
 | | plang: 3 decisive games today.
Riazantsev has 1/2 point lead |
|
| Oct-24-16 | | thegoodanarchist: Why do they call it the "Superfinals"?
I suppose because when it is over, it is super over. Thus making is super final. |
|
| Oct-24-16 | | et1: After eight rounds 13 decisive matches in the men's tournament and 33 in the women's ! Super GMs are masters of drawing and harder to beat ? |

| Oct-25-16 | | Imran Iskandar: <<et1: After eight rounds 13 decisive matches in the men's tournament and 33 in the women's ! Super GMs are masters of drawing and harder to beat ?> john barleycorn: Let them challenge the girls to find out.> I imagine if the boys and girls merged into a 24-player Superfinal there'd be a higher decisive rate than either tournament alone. |

 | | HeMateMe: what would Tal, Korchnoi and Kasparov say about all of these draws if it were a USSR final? |
|

 | | perfidious: <Imran Iskandar....I imagine if the boys and girls merged into a 24-player Superfinal there'd be a higher decisive rate than either tournament alone.> Which would, of course, have the bonus effect of creating the heaven-sent opportunity for some posters to kvetch due to the 2700s beating the spots off the women. |
|
| Oct-26-16 | | iking: Russians are well educated in chess .. the result seems good ... no run away winner yet, decider tomorrow. |
|
| Oct-26-16 | | et1: one game to go and 11 in 12 contenders can still make 50 percent of points - isn't this remarkable ? |
|
| Oct-26-16 | | Pedro Fernandez: I named here two GMs who like me, i.e. V. Fedoseev (21) and G. Oparin (19). About the latter, I continue thinking that this GM has a lot of future. Yes, he lost vs Grischuk and Inarkiev, but I see in Oparin an aggressive and ambitious man. About Fedoseev, certainly he is not a surprise for anyone. |

 | | moronovich: <HeMateMe: if 3 people tie for first here, what do they do?> They play bullit chess.Deer Hunter style. |
|
Oct-26-16
| | HeMateMe: the loser gets shot in the head by Saigon gamblers? Doesn't seem appropriate. |
|

Fedo 6
Opar 5.5
Viti 5.5
Jako 5.5
Goga 5.5
Inar 4.5
Koka 4
Boch 2.5 |
|
Oct-27-16
| | plang: 18 decisive games out of 66 is not that low |
|
| Oct-27-16 | | whiteshark: <abuzic> as the rd 9 game Koka-Inar is not included yet, you have to add +.5 point to your table for both players. <plang> That's 27.3% It's not high either or is it? ;) |
|
| Oct-27-16 | | cplyakap: Riazantsev became 2016 Russia Champion!Congratz. |
|
| Oct-27-16 | | CountryGirl: Glad Riazantsev won. He's a very talented and decent player. |
