Thanks for your reply. I have been able to connect to sites re: that tournament (the GM Swiss event), but I cannot find anything about what might have happened today in the Super-GM Rapids event (Carlsen-Svidler and Nakamura-Lie were today's pairings.) |

| Jan-05-09 | | DCP23: <Peligroso Patzer> <but I cannot find anything about what might have happened today in the Super-GM Rapids event (Carlsen-Svidler and Nakamura-Lie were today's pairings.)> Svidler defeated Carlsen 1.5:0.5 and is the winner of the event. Nakamura beat Lie with the same score. |

| Jan-06-09 | | waustad: In the GM Swiss, Hammar's performance rating is now over 2600 after his last win over GM Korneev, so he has a great shot at the final GM norm. |
|
Jan-07-09
| | e4ia: Well, all he needed was a draw in the last round...but instead he won the tournament outright (with black!) in a Q/pawn ending that many thought should have drawn! You can play through it at the live link furnished earlier or here's the pgn for the last rd game. So Hammer finished at 7.0 with a "six-pack" at 6.5 below him; the 18 year old Norwegian wins his own country's tournament, and will be the tenth,( I think) Norwgian GM, after the FIDE Congress certifies him. But equally noteworthy is the 6.5 finish of the 13 year old 2363 rated "Abasov" from AZE! Final standings:

| | e4ia: One last one re this tournament;
definitely play through the last round 29 move win by that "kid" Abasov over the 2632 GM Malakhatko!Totally outplayed him in the opening, which may be of some theoretical interest, as well as tactically/positionally! An untitled 13 year old player, outrated by 330 ELO, is not supposed to manhandle a GM in the fashion he did...moreover in u/30 moves @ standard time controls! Watch out for this "kid" in top tournamnts 2-3 years..or after he finishes high school! |
|
| Jan-07-09 | | soldal: Nijat Azad Abasov’s rating of 2363 seems to be about equal to that of Magnus at the same age. His TPR of 2539 earned him 30 more points, I believe. (GM Vadim Malakhatko’s rating is (was) 2633, which makes a difference of 270, not 330.) Btw, the link above for the results page doesn't work (a missing ‘?’). Here’s the correct one:

|
| Jan-07-09 | | sapfy: <soldal: Nijat Azad Abasov’s rating of 2363 seems to be about equal to that of Magnus at the same age.> Not really. Magnus became a GM at 13.

| Jan-07-09 | | bobinc: guys pls help me how cn play a game? |
|
| Jan-08-09 | | soldal: "Not really. Magnus became a GM at 13."
Yeah, sorry about that. His rating was 2385 in July 2003, but at the time he was 12½, not 13½ as I “calculated”. |
|
| Jan-08-09 | | jurado96: go to chesscube.com great place to play |
|
| Jan-08-09 | | Paraconti: Why is Lie even here? It's John Van Der Wiel versus Kasparov, Karpov and Timman in the late 80s' all over again. Only at least John was a better player and got a few draws. |

| Jan-11-09 | | Octal: Carlsen hasn't played a single dragon yet... |
|
| Mar-15-09 | | WhiteRook48: Lie is losing. Does he have to stop telling Lies? |
|
| Mar-11-10 | | LevinFish: Well,the mandatory question!!!WHO IS RAFFAEL???
Kasparov! http://www.chess-forum.com/threads/... |
