4 of 7 is very good! Congratualations! I got only 3 of 7 correct last time
betting on White.

I like your predictions for round 5. I think that both Crafty & SOS can over
come the effective 70 point rating handicap of playing Black, though I think the
Francesca-Crafty game will be tougher. Just to be different, I will bet on
Francesca instead in that game and see if I get lucky. So I am betting on the
White pieces again except in the Pacque Expert-SOS game.
