i think this may make good logical sense .... but consider this ...

dave is the highest rated player in this tourney.
dave normally plays almost like blitz,
for this tourney dave is (comparatively) taking his time (he is not the first to complete most of his games),

and i wish he would take more time - he might take a championship home, he does deserve something, he has been rhp's strongest longest playing player,

disclaimer: i do not pretent to understand the progress of games at this level ... i spose i am just saying .... i hope dave wins!

The tournament so far is lining up with Prof. Elo's predictions. The top four players are fighting for first place. Salin is doing better than the bottom three, but not as well as the top group.

A prediction: whoever defeats Salin Vitalik 2-0 (assuming anyone can), will win the tournament.

Can somebody do an update on who's leading, please? It looks like a few changes have occurred and it would be interesting to see how this affects the order. Thanks 🙂

It would be nice to see English Tal win it, a fine upstanding English gentleman like him deserves more recognition.
