I'm not talking here about a hypothetical rating using games that I selected according to some criteria (like many people here do). I'm talking about an official rating given by the Israeli Chess Federation. I don't even know how they calculate the rating or how they give weights to tournaments, but they rate Junior like they rate everybody else, and they publish rating lists every 3 months. This, BTW, means that the rating doesn't include many games Junior played in unofficial events, like the Yudasin, Zifroni and Olympic team matches. If I was making up my own rating I would have included them, but that's not what I'm doing here. Amir
