personally I think that hiarcs7 will score less than 2 points
I looked at the games of Hiarcs7 and I am not impressed by the positional
unserstanding of it.

I know that Junior5 lost against Yodusin 1.5:0.5 in tournament time control.
Yodusin could not prepare against Junior5 when Mr. Yermolinsky can prepare
against Hiarcs7 so it will be a big surprise if a 2630 GM with preparaion will
not win the match convincingly.
