    Faulty clock decided the fate of the first place in Aeroflot has
    Thursday, 14.02.2013 22:23

    Peter Svidler was close to the feat. But the tournament was won by Ian Nepomniachtchi

    Dramatically ended with a massive blitz within the Festival "Aeroflot open." Virtually the entire distance was Ian Nepomniachtchi, confident but at the finish line it was unexpectedly jumped to catch up "out of the shadows" Peter Svidler. The fate of the first site was in the internal opposition of the grandmasters in the final round. In order to overtake the leader, Svidleru had to win only with the score 2-0.

    In the first batch about equal endgame who played the Black Man appeared nervous and "peregnul stick" too active moves the pawns of the Royal wing. This skilfully took advantage of his rival.

    In response, Peter duel played "Crown" protect Ufimtseva-Pirca and achieved ... complications. Probably a fairly White was a big advantage, but successfully defended his King of Svidler direct attacks and at the same time on the other flank was "a" grade in Queens.

    The culmination last seconds.


    Svidler on the clock have 2 seconds. To recap, the tournament is played with 3 +2 control, i.e. for each move must be 2 seconds. Just put the Rb1 +. After some reflection the man quickly took the boat, and it is natural that Svidler made a reciprocal commitment most quickly.


    Only that Svidler made this move and got the clock is visible on the screen. The dial shows a 1 second. This may not even be purely mathematically as 1-2 = ( -1), and a negative time on the clock. When mark 0.00 hours stop working, fixing the player defeat. What happens next?


    Svidler makes his next move, and his clock Qh7 shows 0.00. Position black won.

    Neither Svidler nor the man hadn't noticed damage to the watch. Both were surprised after the exodus, but nothing more.
    As a result, the man took first place, Svidler-second, and the third line was Alexander Grischuk.
    Final standings

    It is worth noting that, according to players and spectators, it was not the only failure of the clock mechanism in this tournament.

    Visitors can watch the replay video (from the time of 23.23) which clearly shows that the last two moves of Peter Svidleru not added a second.

    Look at the clock after stroke

    Posted in February 14, Freeman 2013-22:27.

    Look at the clock after the Rb1. they've fixed delay. T. e., Svidler had no time to make a move Rb1. the only thing baffling is why 2 seconds for this move he still added. But lost the case, Swidler as the delay time allowed.

    It is not a fact. When he did the Rb1 and in an instant the clock showed 0.00, and only in this case can be committed late.

    Apparently, it

    Apparently, it ended up almost simultaneously with a click. Note that after the Rb1 black čërtočku next to the clock-Svidler-as far as I understand, this means the fixing of the delay time. Yes and if you add it on the clock was 2 seconds, this means that, before adding he had 0 seconds, i.e., time's up.

    It is "human"

    It is "human" explanation and logical. But purely mechanically, this can not be: If at 0.00 hours have not stopped, and gaining 2 seconds, but a line of "fixed" the delay, so they were neispravleny. This means that it is not possible to determine: whether, in reality, Svidler has overstayed the time or not.
    You can say one thing with confidence: 0.00 was neither in an instant.

    If you add on

    If after adding the clock is 2 seconds, it does not mean that up to
    Add was 0 seconds in nature there are tenths of a second, which, unlike, for example, basketball, these hours we just don't see. Obviously, the moves and f: Lv1 B1 spent less than two seconds, and it is clear, therefore, that Svidler had suffered because of the failure of hours. the question is why such failures should suffer chess players.

    The video is at http://video.russiachess.org/view/1642 , and appears to be about 7 hours in length.
    The video has continuous Russian commentary, but I have yet to find the controversial game..
