Aug-20-20  jith1207: Ha ha, bet all of 997 c$ and won 966 c$

Not bad for playing a couple of days, happy cashing in, everyone.

Congrats to all the top guys.

Aug-20-20  jvb.oziana: Congratulations <moro> you deserved this, winning your third leg. Its a hat trick for me too actually, my third top 5 to go with a 1st (fall 2013) and a 5th (summer 2015).
Aug-20-20  morfishine: Congratulations Dear <moronovich> The undisputed king of Chess wagers!

  beatgiant: Congratulations to the winners! It was very challenging this time, with the target of top 6 and the field packed with experienced players.

And a huge thanks to the bookie! It was very well run, especially for a first time out.

Is there any info yet about a fall leg?

  Penguincw: Congrats to the winners of this leg. Big shout out to <jingohanson> for a well run leg. You should be very proud of your efforts this leg.

  juan31: Thanks <jingohanson> congratulations to all
Aug-21-20  technical draw: I made conservative bets in the last round thinking that the top 10 will get 10,000cbs in the final only to find out it's the top 6 that qualify. Ok, I'll try again.

  Chessgames Bookie: Way to go, team! A great time was had by all, for the play is the thing.

Thanks for the idea to kibitz more in other forums for publicity. I'll try that once we get going again.

Thanks to all the gamblers, we silly people who make up games to amuse ourselves!

  beatgiant: Are there any rough plans yet for when the fall leg will begin?

  Annie K.: The logs have been checked, and the top places are cleared. Congratulations to winner <moronovich>, the other 5 qualifiers, and the rest of the top 10! :)

We have opened the Fall Leg, so if anything turns up, betting can start immediately, but we have no official schedule for the leg yet. We'll have to play it by ear. :) The leg will end sometime around mid- to late December.

Good luck everybody!

Sep-06-20  morfishine: Good luck everybody!

  moronovich: I´ll cheer for you <morfishine> !
Sep-07-20  technical draw: Hey, I'm in first place! And I haven't even made a bet. Must be an omen.
Sep-09-20  morfishine: Dear <moronovich> I'm cheering for you of course, you are a wonder at wagering and a joy to follow, a true master !

  jessicafischerqueen:

<TD> No.

But <Oscar Mayer Panno> is. That's why you should bet on him heavily if they open up the wagering for deceased games.

Sep-25-20  Boomie: Another shameless example of Panno handling.

  beatgiant: Will we cover Altibox Norway Chess? https://norwaychess.no/en/2020-2/ And is that our next event?
