I lost in the first round to a 2057, prompting a commentator to ask how this could happen. Well, I handed him a script before the game, full of great ideas: he was supposed to quake in fear, play a lame opening, and then resign around move 30. Unfortunately, he seemed to misplace it, forgot to lose and won a good fight.<BR/><BR/>Of course, it was disappointing, though I recovered the rest of the way. But the further course of his tournament was remarkable: his next two games were draws against 2400s, then he beat another master, and for dessert he drew GM Dmitry Gurevich in the last round to tie for second. This is a 2057?!<BR/><BR/>Another terror in the event - one I didn't play - was a 9-year old expert named Brian Luo. Like me, he went 3-2, with his only loss coming to IM Emory Tate. Tate was fortunate, though - he took too many liberties in the opening and was in big trouble: Luo had an extra pawn and an attack, but he got too happy. He had temporarily sacrificed a piece, but instead of regaining it he tried to win a second extra pawn. He got the pawn, but couldn't regain the piece, and Tate won easily after that. Nevertheless, he looks like he'll be a force to reckon with, and it doesn't hurt that he's studying with Gurevich.<BR/>Written by Dennis MonokroussosAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536626.post-44581195045895679512007-10-15T15:35:00.000-05:002007-10-15T15:35:00.000-05:00Wouldn't "blunder avoidance" make anyone an expert...Wouldn't "blunder avoidance" make anyone an expert?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536626.post-57347529766727742852007-10-15T15:12:00.000-05:002007-10-15T15:12:00.000-05:00And, great results by Ryan W.
