Sep-27-07 | | Chess Classics: When I first looked at the players listed, I read Krasenkow as Kasparov and got really excited. This is why I shouldn't be on ceegee so late, I guess. Regards,

 | | blazerdoodle: How does one find out the conditions and time controls of such a tournament? Is this info lost when it hits chessgames? |
|
Sep-28-07 | | Imaslowlearner: I found the info here http://www.bcmchess.co.uk/monarch20... |

 | | blazerdoodle: Thanks for that ! Sometimes I find it irritating that they don't list some of these things here. |
|
Oct-02-07 | | PhilFeeley: Too many draws to lower rated players by Kevin Spraggett. He was fortunate to get to a tie for 2nd. He only won £175 though, hardly enough to justify the trip and expense. |
|
Dec-25-07 | | Timsun: He got free flights, accommodation and some appearance money on top of the prize money! |
|
Apr-21-09 | | Raisin Death Ray: I'd rather play on the Isle of Woman! |

 | | offramp: <Imaslowlearner: I found the info here http://www.bcmchess.co.uk/monarch20... <404 THAT PAGE DOESN'T EXIST! The page you were looking for appears to have been moved, deleted or does not exist.> So it looks like we will never know <the conditions and time controls of> this tournament. They are as lost as The Bell (1931). |

 | | Tabanus: Do not despair :)
http://www.saund.co.uk/britbase/mon... has it all. CG has no missing games, no wrong game results, so why not have the list as the default view. |
