< Earlier Kibitzing · PAGE 4 OF 4 · Later Kibitzing>
Oct-25-18		SugarDom: I think I won 350 dollars betting on Xiong vs Rapport. I knew Rapport will push it and pay the price.

Oct-28-18		Calli: Xiong is up about 20 points to 2675 on his Isle of Man results. #69 in the world and I guess the youngest member of the top 100. Has white against Gawain Jones in the last Rd.

Mar-20-19		JimNorCal: "His parents couldn't spell "Jeffrey"" I noticed that too. Oh well, using unusual name spellings is fashionable now. They can say "we meant to do that"

Mar-20-19		parmetd: This is how my parents spelled my brother's middle name... it's just a less popular spelling alternative.

Mar-21-19		Sally Simpson: * 'Jeffrey'or 'Jeffery' is actually the lower working classes way of spelling it. The correct way is 'Geoffrey' and I should know. (insert smug gums emoji) It says Geoffrey on my Birth certificate but I sold the 'REY' to Guillermo Rey *

Mar-21-19		offramp: The lowest-class name around is "Micheal", a name given by parents that are so stupid they cannot even spell the name they want to give their son.

Mar-21-19		SugarDom: <offramp: The lowest-class name around is "Micheal", a name given by parents that are so stupid they cannot even spell the name they want to give their son> It's the Chinese pronunciation.

Mar-21-19		JimNorCal: Congrats, Jeffery, tied first place after 2nd Round of US Championship

Mar-22-19		Gypsy: And nice win in rd. 3 against Shankland

Mar-27-19		wordfunph: Xiong - So tonight Xiong, fight!

Mar-27-19		wordfunph: <2019 U.S. Championship: Pick the Winner! : Xiong [info] 10 LIVE BET 36:1 36.71 367 Apr-01-19> :-)

Sep-18-19		ketchuplover: Rd 4 World Cup awaits!

Sep-22-19		ketchuplover: The elite 8 can't wait

Sep-22-19		Otoy: I know someone whose name is "Karlos". It looks good too. Like the name Alicia, there are those whose name is Allysa, which looks nice too.

Sep-22-19		WorstPlayerEver: The pic is somewhat unflattering.

Sep-23-19		SugarDom: He's the new Kid on town. The other Kid is now overaged.

Sep-24-19		ketchuplover: He won 4 (rounds) but no more :(

Sep-24-19		saffuna: <He won 4 (rounds) but no more :(> Ranked #35, reached final eight.

Nov-24-19		Jambow: And he is in...

Feb-11-20		1d410: I do not understand these games

Jul-19-20		louispaulsen88888888: Jeffery Amherst, 1st Baron Amherst, officer in the British Army Jeffery Deaver, American mystery/crime novelist Jeffery Demps, Florida football player and sprinter Jeffery Lamar Williams, better known under his stage name Young Thug (born 1991), American rapper Jeffery Simmons (born 1997), American football player Jeffery Taylor (born 1989), Swedish basketball player Jeffery Xiong, American chess grandmaster

Oct-30-20		Ironmanth: Happy birthday, Grandmaster! So impressed with your skill, work ethics, and performances, Jeffery. So proud you are a member of the US team. Congrats on your 2020 US Championship result!

Oct-30-20		Williebob: Winning on his birthday must be pretty sweet. Happy birthday GM Xiong and congratulations on a solid USCC performance!

Nov-05-20		SChesshevsky: With some 2020 wins versus Aronian, So, Nakamura and even Carlsen, Xiong looks like he might be moving solidly into that "next generation of chess" top group. Maybe headed by Firouzja, Duda, Artemiev, etc. What's the next step? Probably many more major tournament head-to-heads against his peers. And I might suggest some sort of serious in tone and prize money 10 game or thereabouts rapid match with a top player like Naka, So, or Caruana. The outcome isn't really that important. It's the preparation, plus the ongoing and post match analysis that might really have the potential of bringing Jeffery's game up a notch. I think the Fischer-Reshevsky 1961 match certainly helped Fischer. Guessing the Carlsen-Leko 2008 match didn't hurt Carlsen either. Regardless, next few years should be exciting for Xiong and maybe US chess.

Nov-18-20		Jambow: <SChesshevsky> No doubt you are correct Xiong finished just 1/2 point behind So for US chess championship.... at 20 years old his prospects look like a top ten player at the very least as my best guess.
