Probably you'll need to wait additional one or two hours till Bryan will get back home and post all information :)

Re: Toronto Labour Day results

Don't tell Gary Ruben about this game. ;)

I don't think it fits Gary's premise...

His theory was that a weak player should not use the Winawer against a much stronger player, OR, am I misunderstanding and maybe you are calling Sambuev a weak player? :)

Yes. That was my theory. In any case, black was busted in this game. 33. Ng6, where a good reply for black might be "Resigns". Even with the text it's probably still a game until move 35. Bf5?? which is outright losing.

I wonder if there was big time trouble here.

Re: Toronto Labour Day results

At one moment (probably at move 30) I noticed about 15 min for Artiom.

Re: Toronto Labour Day results ??

Almost all players were kibitzing the game
