| May-21-09 | | YouRang: Yes, you can see how volatile Pair betting ranker is. Any little change in the tournament standings can cause huge swings in pair betting rankings. :-) |
|
| May-21-09 | | YouRang: At this point, I would say that <Where is my mind> has excellent chances of winning. Unless Ivanchuk wins his last 2 while Yue loses both, he'll keep his <Ivanchuk-below-Wang Yue> jackpot. Of course, other jackpots could happen, but that one looks pretty solid. |

| May-23-09 | | YouRang: Thanks <lostemperor> for running the contest. Congrats to <Where is my mind> for sweeping first place (dang it) ;-) Oh well, sweeping 2nd place is pretty good too. My regards to Shirov who made it all possible. :-) |
|
| May-23-09 | | rogge: Thanks for running the show, <emperor>! I suspect the last round didn't do me any good, but hey, silver ain't bad :) Congrats, <where is my mind>! |
|
May-23-09
| | lostemperor: A great comeback after Linares <rogge>! And you were first in the Absolute and Square Ranker after 9 rounds. if only Carlsen hasn't lost today .. :) You owe it all to yourself <YouRang>. Your prediction on Shirov is the single best surprise player's prediction (still to come)! Of course giving me unexpected silver in your 1-2-3 Ranker also helps;) Thanks all, it was my pleasure too. |
|
| May-24-09 | | Where is my mind: Thanks for running the contest <lostemperor>. Thanks and Congrats on silver <rogge> and <Yourang> (Carlsen-below-Shirov!). |
