That just ruined your big chance to win the winter leg! ;D> hehe..:-) Feb-09-10    TITIKIZA: <CG Bookie> We are still waiting for Aeroflot.. thanks. Feb-10-10    mysql: Having a networth of 0 chessbucks excludes you from the standings? Feb-10-10    SwitchingQuylthulg: <mysql> That's a well-known bug. A month ago it was <We're aware of that but haven't gotten to correcting it. Sorry.> Feb-10-10    mysql: I see, thanks. Feb-10-10    wordfunph: <CG Bookie> thanks for featuring Aeroflot! Feb-13-10    dakgootje: Hoo-ah, firmly in the top-10 at place 8! Top-5, here I come!! Feb-13-10    dakgootje: right, forget about that previous comment :P Feb-13-10    Chessgames Bookie: Refunds have been issued on bets on the incorrect pairings, Vallejo-Gashimov and Gelfand-Topalov. Feb-15-10    notyetagm: Hot off the press! Round 8 pairings: 1 GM Nepomniachtchi, Ian 5.0 RUS 2658 GM Grachev, Boris 5.0 RUS 2653 2 GM Le, Quang Liem 5.0 VIE 2647 GM Savchenko, Boris 5.0 RUS 2638 3 GM Nguyen, Ngoc Truong Son 5.0 VIE 2616 GM Najer, Evgeniy 4.5 RUS 2665 4 GM Vachier-Lagrave, Maxime 4.5 FRA 2730 GM Sasikiran, Krishnan 4.5 IND 2653 5 GM Bacrot, Etienne 4.5 FRA 2713 GM Timofeev, Artyom 4.5 RUS 2652 6 GM Naiditsch, Arkadij 4.5 GER 2687 GM Korobov, Anton 4.5 UKR 2648 7 GM Cheparinov, Ivan 4.5 BUL 2660 GM Bareev, Evgeny 4.5 RUS 2643 8 GM So, Wesley j 4.5 PHI 2656 GM Zhou, Jianchao 4.5 CHN 2632 Time for the Vietnameses players Le and Ngoc to make their move: they both have White on the top two boards in Round 8. Feb-19-10    wordfunph: <CG Bookie> i gave back $700 to <loanshark> but he won't lend me...help please. Feb-20-10    moronovich: <wordfunph> I think it was you who started and we should all pay respect to the loanshark. Feb-20-10    wordfunph: <moronovich> i need to get out of the Negative Club, i'm tired of staying at the basement. Could you lend me $2,000? :-) Feb-20-10    moronovich: <wordfunph> No,sorry.But I would like too.But perhaps it could give you comfort to hear that I was around -3000§´s the leg where I qualified for the final..So.. it IS possible for you too. Good luck ,pal ! Feb-20-10    wordfunph: <moronovich> thanks, next leg see you at the top..:) Feb-22-10    Chnebelgrind: I can't reconstruct my motivation for setting 49 cb on Topalovs 1.Nf3. Anyway - it brought me a nice benefit ;-) Feb-24-10    Chnebelgrind: <moronovich> +14100! Exactly that amount you could realize with a wager of 1000 chessbucks on white-draw-draw and another of 1200 chessbucks on Grischuk did I run it? Feb-24-10    moronovich: <Chnebelgrind> Interesting handle BTW !? Close , but not close enough ;) 5.500 on Grischuk + 1500 on Topa+ 1000 on pick 3 and 500 on Vallejo. I was almost shure Gris would go "all in"(actually a strong pokerplayer) and trying to establish a stable advantage, combined with Topa has played rather flamboyant at times.And still could run into not showing his best before Anand coming up.So..... And a most satisfying experience it was.But it aint over yet,as you should be the first to know ; And maybe we could exchange strategical ideas when it is all over !?.. Feb-24-10    moronovich: <Chnbelgrind> I forgot to tell you , that I frequently during the 80ies paid your country a visit.And all the beautifull memories connected with it.Especially Geneve. Feb-24-10    Chnebelgrind: <maybe we could exchange strategical ideas when it is all over> I propose that the present leader has to lay open his strategies. In this regard <sneaky> is (was?!) exemplary (see his advices at page 126 in Jun-24-08 Chessgames Bookie chessforum) <I frequently during the 80ies paid your country a visit> Did you also place your money here? :-) Feb-25-10    Chessgames Bookie: We've put up some bets on the 7th round of the "Meurthe et Moselle" tournament, being held in Nancy, France. For more information on this event you can go to the official site at http://echecs54.free.fr/ Feb-26-10    wordfunph: <Chessgames Bookie: We've put up some bets on the 7th round of the "Meurthe et Moselle" tournament, being held in Nancy, France.> chance for cellar-dwellers to recover..thanks <CGB>. Feb-26-10    notyetagm: <BOOKIE> How about letting us bet on this weekend's <GERMAN BUNDESLIGA 2009-2010> games?
