Nov-22-07 | | Jim Bartle: You call these guys elite players? Ivanchuk missed a table-base win on move 112, and Leko on moves 145 and again on move 158! Embarrassing. |

 | | Messiah: Sry for my bad English.
During the transmission I was frightened by that Leko found that great draw with cca 0.5 secundum of thinking. |
|
Nov-22-07 | | HOTDOG: 215 moves in about 5 minutes is amazing... |
|
Nov-22-07 | | Jim Bartle: Put those fingers in the whirlpool... |
|
Nov-23-07 | | jamesmaskell: I think the TC was 4 minutes plus 2 secs increment per move. They must have been shattered after this game! |

Nov-23-07 | | acirce: "Blitz", so what? Thanks to the increment they had at least 2 whole SECONDS to think on every single move. Why would any 2750+ player need more than that? Standards are going down, I tell you...Fischer and Capablanca would have wiped the floor with these guys. |
|
Nov-23-07 | | rover: Another boring draw. These so called "elite" players really need to try harder or we'll never see chess games on prime time TV. |

Nov-25-07 | | capablancakarpov: < Jim Bartle: You call these guys elite players? Ivanchuk missed a table-base win on move 112> A tablebase win with 8 pieces on the board? Are you from the future? Such tablebases don´t exist yet! Anyway, the full post was a nonsense. |
|
Nov-25-07 | | Jim Bartle: Thanks, it was intended to be nonsense. |
|
Nov-25-07 | | capablancakarpov: In move 213 Ivanchuk missed a beautiful win with 213.Re5! Qc6(Qd8 doesn´t work) 214.Be4 Qd7 215.Bg6 and black must give the Queen for the Rook to avoid mate. Anyway, astonishing how this supermen can play so good and so fast, unbelievable. |

Nov-25-07 | | Resignation Trap: <capablancakarpov> Did you finish a complete analysis to this game already? You are fast! |
|
Nov-26-07 | | capablancakarpov: <Resignation Trap> LOL... Not, serious now, when i said that i was astonished about their play under such conditions, i wasn´t saying that their play was perfect, i´m sure that there are a lot of mistakes, what i wanted to say is that they play extraordinary well having only about 4 seconds of thinking per move. |
