  WannaBe: Whats this Discard Ticket?? 4 of them?!!? Ugh.
Jul-14-18  sydbarrett: I made money on all my bets except for pick 3, where I lost 100. Yet I'm down to 930. I think someone hacked my account but I don't feel like pressing the matter further. It seemed like an optical illusion when I tried to figure it out.
Jul-14-18  Count Wedgemore: <sydbarrett: I think someone hacked my account but I don't feel like pressing the matter further.>

Was it the Russians? Or was it an inside job?

Jul-14-18  morfishine: <Annie K.> Dear <AK> You are one of the most revered and respected individuals here at <Chessgames.com> to the point that you are beloved in some corners

I hardly post at <GOTD> anymore. There are many other members that post critical at GOTD besides me

Perhaps contact them

Best Always, morf

Easy money.

  Annie K.: <Sneaky> ...they are not laughing now, eh? ;D
Jul-15-18  sydbarrett: Well Sneaky, Duda created a 1000+ buck winning ticket for me on Pick Three. I put around 43 bucks on D-D-B. If you were a real Duda fan... well where were you with that one? Good job anyway, ol' chap.

Jul-15-18  sydbarrett: Um fred i erased that "Duda Day" post 7 hours ago. Are you referring to the message I posted for 20 minutes and erased, or did you come up with "Duda Day" yourself in a bit of unexpected ESP? Either way this is eerie to me

  Penguincw: This post is coming a few days late, but I'd like to congratulate <Golden Executive> for joining me as the only other user to have finished in the top 10 of a "preseason leg" 4 times.

(yes it is sad if you're like me and most of your accomplishments are on things that don't matter, but oh well)

  FSR: <syd> I posted the link to that video in response to the comments by you and <Sneaky> about Duda's victory. I had no idea that you had previously linked to the same video. Every time I see "Duda" I think of the "doo da, doo da" song, so it was inevitable I would link to the video sometime.
Jul-16-18  sydbarrett: ok lol
It was either that or the Police song. The chesstown races song is a better fit and I guess you agree.
Jul-16-18  morfishine: Well, the Camptown ladies sing this song Duda, Duda
Jul-16-18  DerDiemer: Hoping for at least 2 result games tomorrow. So hope Duda is one of them :-). Sees the higher the Elo average is for an tournament, the more draw games there are.
Jul-16-18  DerDiemer: Dortmund Performance ratings after 2 rounds (Player Elo in brackets)

1. Duda:2857 (2737)
2. Meier:2758 (2628)
3. Kovalev:2747 (2655)
4. Nepomniachtchi:2719 (2757)
5. Wojtaszek:2710 (2733)
6. Kramnik:2703 (2792)
7. Giri:2693 (2782)
8. Nisipeanu:2572 (2672)

Jul-17-18  sydbarrett: I bet everything, and more (borrowed). The possibilities for my new net worth are almost endless. Isn't that exciting...
Jul-17-18  WinKing: <sydbarrett: The possibilities for my new net worth are almost endless. Isn't that exciting...>

Only if you win.

Jul-17-18  sydbarrett: It was shaping up to be a bad day, but a Kovalev win (vs draw) made roughly a $1500 gain for me. Sneaky your faith in Duda is starting to impress me. Maybe he is your spirit animal.

  Sneaky: < Dortmund Round 3: Duda - Wojtaszek : Duda [cash in ticket] 100 YOU WIN! COLLECT 450 > Pleasure doing business with you!
Jul-17-18  morfishine: <Sneaky> Likewise:

Pick 3 D/W/B [cash in ticket] 20 YOU WIN! COLLECT 3152

That's some sweet action!

Jul-17-18  morfishine: And <wallytherhino> is back in action
