Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
how come that Karjakin doesn’t play corus ???
what I always wanted to know and could not find out: how do you calculate the category of a tournament?
GO Irina Krush GO
Nice to see her playing. I hope she has a great tournament. She is so ready to become a GM.
I always like to watch her games live on the internet. I watch on ICC. I hope they cover all her games.
I really want to see Gata in Corus this year. He is playing so well. But his win in the World Cup will not get him an invite to Corus until next year. A long wait.
yeap ! strange that karjakin and gata are not invited to this +++event
???
Karjakin has no charisma ah ah ah !!!! compare to dude carlsen ( it’s true that he is working his image, wearing burbourizzzzzzz pull over ) and gata didn’t kill his father
that’s why
Will Irina Kraarsh the competition?
Let’s see!
Go Irina Krush!
Why wasn’t the world’s youngest grandmaster, Wesley So of the Philippines, invited to this event? That kid needs a manager
Marco: ((average rating)-2250)/25, and round up to the next integer
thanks Paul
so all the tournaments I play in do have a negative category
