Sep-05-12 | | spartan1998: Congrats GM Eugene and RP Team for winning!
PM77, nanood kami ni pau, pero before 12midnight natulog na sya. May email ako sa yo re: law on averages, dumating na kanina :) Sinilip ko sa tablebases ng shredderchess.com, draw na yung kay GM Barbosa. Anyway, panalo pa rin! |
|
Sep-05-12 | | Archdruid: Hindi pa draw. 85. Ne8 is a brilliant move. Hindi makabalik sa h5 ang hari ng kalaban. |
|
Sep-05-12 | | spartan1998: Spoke too soon, mali ayon sa tablebases yung 83...Be6, mananalo pa si GM Barb! |
|
Sep-05-12 | | pinoymaster77: Ok Lilet,
Read your email, ayos!
Sa chessdom, wala pa ngang result yun kay Barbie. Clinched match win na yan, gusto ko sana wait yung next rd9 opponent pero may pasok pa ulit bukas... Good night and God bless us all! |

Sep-05-12 | | Archdruid: He is going to win. Sacrifice the knight but get the pawn to become a queen. |

Sep-05-12 | | giwgiw: Philippines 3 - 1 England
Congrats GM Torre! Congrats Team Philippines!
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas! |
|
Sep-05-12 | | Archdruid: Panalo! Orly let his time almost run out to determine the right end game treatment.The Ne8 was a brilliant move that does not allow the opponent's king to go back to h5. With the 60 second increment, Orly can handle the time. He is truly a great blitz player. |
|
Sep-05-12 | | Archdruid: Now, who was the one who predicted that Orly will lose? You should be studying chess some more. |
|

Sep-05-12 | | batongol: Performance level hanep Pilipinas..
Pader pa rin si So sa mga opponent na matataas ang rating, hinihintay ko na lang ay ang isang guhit sa mga 2700 plus players at alam kong darating din yun.. Biglang tayo ulit ni Barbie pagkatapos matapilok sa last round, galing mo barb hindi basta basta ang tinalo mong player from England.. At heto na ang pinakamatindi, akala ko e 20 years ago ang laban pero ito na yon. Unti unting bumabalik ang bangis ni AFGM sa ahedres. Mark naman held his own. Ang tabla ay sapat na para sa 3-1 at taas noo na naman ang mga Phl players sa Turkey. Ayos! ang bata ni <word>.. You are making us proud Pinoy Players..Mabuhay Philippines! |

Sep-05-12 | | pinoymaster77: Sana ma drumbeat nga eto, vonvon posted this in FB groups this am and will probably also appear sa mga media sites na contributor siya : BAYAN MUNA CONGRATULATES HISTORIC FEAT OF PHILIPPINE CHESS TEAM IN OLYMPIAD: Urges government to provide more funds for sports in 2013 budget
Bayan Muna Representative and National Chess Federation of the Philippines (NCFP) Vice-President Neri Colmenares expressed elation over the victories of the Philippine Chess team currently playing in the World Olympiad in Istanbul, Turkey and calls for more government support for chess. “ We congratulate our chess team for its outstanding performance. Being thrust into the main attraction in the Olympiad by playing on the top three main tables for the first time since we joined the Olympiad, specifically the Third Main Board in an Olympiad where 158 countries play on 79 Boards, is a historic feat indeed—the highest board ranking we have ever achieved” said Colmenares. “Defeating world chess powers like Bulgaria with their super GMs is another historic milestone for our men’s chess team, never before achieved. The team of Grandmasters So, Paragua, Barbosa, Torre and even International Master Dimakiling headed by NCFP President Butch Pichay have been to a place where no Filipino chess teams have ever been. Their victories are exhilaratingly ecstatic for the Filipino people” said Colmenares who, as the Chess Champion of Western Visayas, placed second in the 1976 Palarong Pambansa.
“Our women’s chess team should also be commended. Although they lost four matches so far, they have won all their other games and also achieved the highest board ranking ever by a Philippine women’s team. Many countries find it difficult to barge into the top twenty of the Olympiad after the USSR broke up into many chess playing countries in the 80’s. Now, our men’s team is ranked 2nd to 6th place in the current standings. ” said Colmenares who was recently elected to the NCFP National Board. “Whatever happens after these matches, both our teams have done exceedingly well and we should be proud of them. We, do however wish they will continue to win their next matches and maintain their top ten standings until the finals.”
Colmenares, who started playing chess at the age of six and as Palarong Pambansa player strongly advocates for grassroots sports development, asked for more support from government for chess. “Bayan Muna has been supportive of age group tournaments for players below 14 years old. But government has to step in. The dismal funding not just for the national chess federation but also the local federation is not encouraging. Pres. Noynoy Aquino, through the Philippine Sports Commission, should also budget much needed funds for chess and sports in general” he concluded. |
