  Open Defence: <I didn't say I gave it to him!> hmmm so he took it and left you crying for Mommy ? ;-p
Feb-13-08  technical draw: No, he took it and it exploded in his face!
Feb-14-08  Tactic101: <TD> So you are only looking for a challenge? :)
Feb-14-08  technical draw: <Tactic101> Well, I don't know how I got to tenth place but since I'm there I might as well go for the championship.
Feb-14-08  yxcvbnm: why is there no betting on aeroflot?

  lostemperor: <Chessgames Bookie> just a question. Why do you often close bettings, like for Morelia tournament winner, four hours before the tournament or game starts? People might want to make a last minute betting!:)

  Chessgames Bookie: <lostemperor> The closing times were entered when we did not know precisely the starting time of the first round. We have reopened the betting on the overall winner.

  Chessgames Bookie: We have added wagering on the winner of the Aeroflot tournament, but please be aware that the event has already started. Aeroflot Open: Winner
Feb-15-08  technical draw: <Chess Bookie> Can I set the "Tabular View" as a default option. I don't like the graphical view and it keeps popping up. Thanks.
Feb-16-08  Tactic101: Shame. If <TD> had been playing to lose by betting on wins this round, he could have jumped into the top 5.
Feb-16-08  technical draw: <Tactic101> Hey I'm in 15th place and with a little extra luck I could win this whole thing and that would be a greater upset than the superbowl!
Feb-16-08  sweeviltree: All my money on this guy: Amdriasian
Aeroflot Open: Winner

  chessgames.com: <technical draw: <Chess Bookie> Can I set the "Tabular View" as a default option. I don't like the graphical view and it keeps popping up. Thanks.> Normally it stays on tabular view, but there's a small bug: if you modify your preferences it goes back to graphical view automatically.

Feb-17-08  technical draw: Thanks <chessgames> I did modify my preferences. I'll be doing that for a for a while so I guess I'll live with it. Thanks
