Feb-19-14 | | waustad: After her win today against Emre Can in Graz she's tied for the lead at the Internationales Casino Open Graz 2014 A-Turnier. Since she is under age to play in the casino, none of her games have been broadcast since they've been played in a neighboring venue, but her results speak for themselves: http://chess-results.com/tnr107256.... |
|
Feb-19-14 | | mrbasso: According to your link she is not in the lead. Melkumyan is alone. |
|
Feb-19-14 | | waustad: Sorry - actually shes tied for second place. Her opponent in the penultimate round is the leader Hrant Melkumyan. With her status as one of the leaders, her game against Emre Can is included in the pgn file for round 7. |
|
Feb-20-14 | | Granny O Doul: All that, AND Secretary-General of the UN. |
|
Feb-21-14 | | waustad: It is very likely she'll have to choose between the U18 prize and the top female prize. Each is 150 euros so it is mainly how it effects the person in second and third place. The entry says that a player can only win one prize. A final round win against Ruben Felgaer would make that point moot most likely since 6.5 probably ranks her high enough to win a bigger prize. |
|
Feb-21-14 | | waustad: In the end she came in second U18 and out of the running for a place prize, so she's top female on tiebreaks over Melanie Ohme. It is still a fine performance but not quite the norm worthy one it started out as. <granny>That joke really dates you, but I guess so does your nick. I was alive but don't remember Trygve Lie. He came before Dag Hammarskjöld, who I do remember. |
|
Mar-02-14 | | waustad: It appears that she got another IM norm at XXVIIIe Festival des Jeux de Cannes. This European visit has been productive with IM norms in France and Austria in a couple of weeks. http://canneschesstournament.wordpr... |
|
Mar-15-14 | | waustad: She's now leading in the Chinese women's championship with 4.5/5. |
|
Mar-15-14 | | nok: Btw her real name is Lei Tingjie. Given name comes in after. Ppl here seem to get it wrong every time. |
|
Mar-15-14 | | waustad: Sadly most of us here have no idea which is the given name and which is the family name, so even if we know that detail, we're at a loss. I often copy something from a place like chess-results and just delete the comma, hoping that I'll get it right. |
|
Mar-18-14 | | waustad: Her run at the Chinese Championships continues, but there is a caveat. Her last 4 opponents are all rated higher than she is. Of course rating takes a while to catch up to strength with somebody so new to the scene, but she has already played the bottom half of the table. Her game with Ju Wenjun in the penultimate round as black may determine the winner. Yang Shen is at +3 and has drawn with almost everybody in the top of the table already. She would probably need to win all of her last 4 games to have a realistic shot at it, but has a much easier remaining draw. http://chess-results.com/tnr127166.... |
|
Mar-18-14 | | norami: I call her Tingle Lee. |
|
Mar-19-14 | | waustad: Today Guo Qi missed drawing chances in time trouble and Lei Tingjie extended her lead over Ju Wenjun who drew today. Yang Shen won her game and is now at 6/8 in third place. |
|
Mar-20-14 | | norami: Or maybe Lay Tingle. |
|
Mar-20-14 | | Alien Math: <nok> Appears to find name correct, here article with picture of Lei Tingjie, 6th Chinese Individual Championship in Xinghua http://sports.sina.com.cn/go/2014-0... Notes in Chinese |
|
May-11-14 | | waustad: She continues to do well and is leading The fourth Chess Women Master Tournment with 4/5 so far: http://chess-results.com/tnr133261.... Live games at: http://games.sports.cn/chessorg/dom... or via chessdom |

 | | Penguincw: Congrats to Tingjie Lei for her performance at the Chinese Women Championship. She scored 7.5/11 for a tie for 3rd, but was the only undefeated player. |

|
Feb-12-16 | | waustad: She has returned to Graz this year to play in the Graz Open. This tournament isn't played at the casino, so she doesn't have to play next door. After a win over IM Walter Wittmann in the first round her second round opponent will be FM Robert Perhinig (2315). Games can be found on chess-results.com, including with a live feed. |

 | | WannaBe: Must be very distracting to have all the slot machine noises and croupier yelling SEVEN WINNA!!! |
|
Feb-16-16 | | waustad: After 6 rounds she is 1/2 point behind the leaders Markus Ragger, Li Chao b and Banusz Tamas. Ragger is certainly leading in moves played, since today he strove to win a game a pawn up in a rook and opposite colored bishop endgame, lasting 120 moves. Her opponent in round 7 is Pap Gyula. (FYI, since both Chinese and Magyar use family name first, I think I've ordered names in their local form. I make no promises that I got it right, but I try.) |
|
Feb-18-16 | | waustad: Going into the 9th round a GM norm is almost sure. She's in a 3 way tie for second place with 6, half a point behind Li Chao. Her opponent tomorrow is Banusz Tamas. With a 2732 tpr so far, I think the norm is in the bag, along with some prize money. I'm not sure if she could get both the top female prize and an overall place prize in this tournament, since it is sometimes explicitly stated that only one prize can be won. If this is an only one prize tournament, Monica Socko is the most likely to win the top female, dispite her loss today to Markus Ragger. |

Feb-19-16 | | sonia91: She finished 4th in Graz with a 2662 performance, earning her second GM norm: http://chess-results.com/tnr181947.... |
