Jul-24-08 | | offtherook: <jaybugg13: Do we think the clocks are right on? If it is that is some serious time trouble.> Yeah, Pelletier's toast. No way he'll be able to survive until time control, and even if he does he already has a basically lost position. |

Jul-24-08 | | Waitaka: <acirce: 31..Bxh3 32.Kxh3 g5 is pretty convincing.> You are right, 31.Bxh3 is killing. |
|
Jul-24-08 | | offtherook: Odd choice. Perhaps he didn't want to grab the knight because that would give Pelletier some "easy" moves where he didn't have to think so long? Well, P will be out on time shortly. |

Jul-24-08 | | boz: Did the wrong rook dance out on the stage? Where's the vaudeville hook? |
|
Jul-24-08 | | offtherook: Huh? I thought Pelletier ran out on time just now? Plus, Alekseev was killing him on the board even if you ignore the clocks. What, did Alekseev's cell phone ring or something? |
|
Jul-24-08 | | severus6: yes, on the official feed, it has Alekseev winning |
|
Jul-24-08
 | | kamalakanta: The score HAS to be wrong. The clock shows White lost on time. |

There is no way Alekseev (or anyone in their right mind) would ever resign from that position, even disregarding the fact that he was about to be handed a win on time. |
