Tournament 941
we now have with (near) certainty;
Quirine, cludi, Time Travel, and Gatecrasher.
In group 5, sastorey and GOGITOTX are still fighting for the opportunity to play in the final round. Game 2075648 looks important.

cludi: 1 win, 4 draws, 5 losses (ouch!)
Time Travel: 1 draw, 1 loss.
sastorey: 2 wins, 2 draws.
Should be fun.

But what you tried to say was, that based on previous games played between the final players Quirine is a clear favourite, right?

Good luck to all players in the final group, especially those from The Vikings 😉
I don't know if I am the favourite. I always have a hard time against gatecrasher. I don't know Timetravel but his rating is high...
Anyway, thanks for appreciating me despite my current rating!

PS all games look pretty tense now, very interesting group!
Timtravel has taken an early lead with a win from the black side of a najdorf.
Was 12 fxg5 bad strictly due to 12 ... Ne5? or does the opening of the g and h-files make blacks h8 rook potentially to powerful (It already appears that white will castle long, so it's not immediatly lethal...)?
Game 2548747
Edit: It's a rather silly question now that I look at it. Nd5 is wonderful for black. White has an isolated e-pawn and black will probably get to play Nfg4 effectivly as well.
