That was unfortunate, but I didn't even expect Rebel in that match, to me that
was impressive.

Diep also lost today, I don't give it much of a shot. Vincent must be having
fits of=ver there in London, we all know how proud he is of Diep, and he stated
it is not a blitz program, but rather a program best suited for tournament time
controls. Let's not forget last year where he barely got 3 points, and there was
a much weaker field.

I am picking Insomniac all the way on this one.
