| slomarko: i am very puzzled by the fact that the first tie-break seems to be the rating performance. it doesn't make too much sense to me. |

Mar-25-11 20th Amber Tournament (Rapid) (2011)
| |
| slomarko: <rogge: I think a 3087 TPR (Carlsen, not Karpov) speaks for itself.> You can't calculate a TPR performance in rapids based on the standard classical controls ratings. <Rybka level, isn't it ;)> Rybka level is more like 3200 or something ;) |

Nov-24-10 A Crisan vs Macieja, 2001

| slomarko: taking the pawn was playable but it's not clear to me if it's really better then the text. for example after 23...Re8 24.Bh7 Ne5 [DIAGRAM] white needs to worry about g6. another option was to avoid taking on h7 by playing for example Bf5 but then black goes Rxe3 and white can't get |
