 | | Penguincw: MVL, a day after losing to Wei Yi 2 1/2-1 1/2 in a rapid match, beats some of the world's best players in the world in a blitz tournament. Is that saying something? ;) Anyway, MVL, Nakamura, Anand, Carlsen and Giri will have 5 whites in the tournament. Some interesting games here as well, even though it's blitz. |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Mr 1100: Just by the way guys, it seems these games have been (incorrectly) recorded as "classical" games - they are of course, blitz games. CG.com, kindly amend as appropriate. |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Mr 1100: And well done to Vachier-Lagrave... after a disappointing performance at Grand Prix Khanty-Mansiysk, a good performance here. Hope he does well in the classical section too. |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | SirRuthless: Does one get a cash prize for winning the blitz event or is it just the extra white? |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Mr 1100: LOL...
It isn't all about the money now, is it?
:-) |

 | | sydbarrett: If Wei Yi beat MVL yesterday in the Spanish tournament, and MVL beat a field consisting of the best players in the world, does that mean that Wei can... nah shouldn't jump to conclusions too soon |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Mr 1100: And we also have a situation where Vachier-Lagrave beat Carlsen, Carlsen beat Nakamura, and Nakamura beat Vachier-Lagrave... |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Whitemouse: the conclusion is only Wei Yi is real strong. |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | Sokrates: Congrats to MVL for this well-earned victory. It will become a nice warm coat in the cold days ahead, when it's likely that he'll be seriously challenged by his strong colleagues. It is the nice thing about blitz: it shakes the rankings a bit and offers other winners. |
|
| Jun-15-15 | | SirRuthless: <Me1100> The circle of pain. |
|
| Jun-16-15 | | greenfield67: Even though Nakamura outperformed Carlsen in the tournament, and even in blitz, which is Nakamura's specialty, Carlsen still won their head-to-head game. If I was Hikaru, I'd be scratching my head... |
|
| Jun-16-15 | | SirRuthless: That's a lot of "even thoughs". |
|
| Jun-16-15 | | Kinghunt: It means the old saying is true - anything can happen in blitz! |
|
| Jun-16-15 | | alfamikewhiskey: A short report from the blitz day.
Grischuk causing amusement and a somewhat "contemplative" Nakamura. <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pV...> |
|
| Jun-17-15 | | number 23 NBer: <chessgames.com> I don't know if there is a way to submit some sort of mass correction slip, but all of these games are listed as CLASSICAL instead of BLITZ. |
|
| Jun-26-15 | | 1 2 3 4: <sydbarrett> let's see what's going to happen in the world cup ;-) |
