  WannaBe: <midknightblue> Very cool. <DrDum> and I'll be doing battle with Ms. Polgar while you're dueling with Mr. Browne :-)

  WannaBe: <mahmoudkubba> It's not a tournament, but a prediction on which country will win the World Cup.

The prediction for phase 1 has ended. But I'll post notice before phase 2 (The knockout round). You're more than welcome to enter. =)

Jun-12-06  brankat: <Dionyseus> Sorry. I was looking at the previous FEN, without seeing the line below it, so <Rf6+> didn't seem to be possible :-)

Jun-12-06  Dionyseus: <WannaBe> Game has been interesting but I'm wishing I had used Rybka's book, the opening I chose seems to be too passive.
Jun-12-06
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <Dionyseus> The opening was sound, according to CG.com's opening explorer, white has very good percentage with it.
Jun-12-06  Dionyseus: <WannaBe> Sound perhaps for humans, but this looked too passive and drawish to me.
