 | | lostemperor: As a good host I finished below <King Sacrificer> in the Pair Betting. I really need to play more intuitively and daring:) |
|
| May-18-13 | | King Sacrificer: <lostemperor> Thanks for the hospitality! :) Congrats to medal winners and big thanks to organizers. Next time i will study more before making predictions. This game is no joke. What was i thinking when putting Hammer over Karjakin? |
|
May-18-13
 | | lostemperor: <King Sacrificer> putting Hammer over Karjakin was was daring alright!;) |
|
| May-18-13 | | LucB: Thanks for organizing this, and for tabulating all the data.. it was fun!.. <lostemperor:>
<Does anyone know the agenda of top tournaments for this year?> If no one has answered, the site http://www.2700chess.com has the list of the upcoming events (if that's what you mean..). They are below the rating list. |

 | | lostemperor: However, I do notice a remarkable feat in the Pair betting this time, that it was possible to put Hammer first and Carlsen last, and predict everone in reverse rating order. So the player with lowest rating on top and the highest rating at the bottom. The reverse order would have won the pair betting ranker:) Virtual contestant <REVERSE> the reverse rating order 1. hammer
2. hao
3. Radjabov
