| kamagong24: Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. - Max Ehrmann |

| kamagong24: i love chess stories! so here is what happened in round 5 as told by one of the commentators of chess.com GM Williams i think his name is, tells Shirov took a 'half point bye' in round 5, meaning Shirov will not be playing, his reason is rather of superstitious nature saying that |

Oct-03-16 So vs D Harika, 2016
| |
| kamagong24: so why then didn't white do so in the game?
maybe because of 18. RxN QxN 19. P-QB7 Q-KB5 20. N-Q5 Q-K4 and black's R can take white's B (and prevent white from promoting his pawn) and black's Q and B may still be enough score a full point just maybe... |
