In group 41 I am guaranteed to make the next round. I expect that no1marauder will win the rest of his games to tie me for the group win.
Originally posted by RookGrabberI hope so; you gave me a pretty good thrashing in the game where you had White and were in good shape in the other game (though the position was complex as Najdorf Poisoned Pawns usually are), but got a little greedy grabbing the e-pawn.
How long did that take ???

Best of luck in the next round.
Originally posted by zebanoFirst year I'm competing, and I made it to the 2nd round (Group 23). I hope I get lucky again, and get in a easy group.
I would like to offer congratulations to phatboy666 who thrashed me twice on his way to winning group 20 (assuming User 4 Chris doesn't show a huge improvement in form).

I made a totally horrendous blunder against climan in my final game that wouldve got me through to the second round by one point had I won!!
So... group 91 is complete 🙁
I am however pleased that my group was easier than most groups and that I had a shot at the second round, I am pleased with second place, just wish I hadnt blundered grrr
