There is no active playing
Van Reek anymore. He would get completely crushed by me.
Also remember he is running from room to room. So he's at the game
then he writes down on a paper the move and runs to his own room
where he has internet. There he enters the move in fritz5.32 and
based upon what he sees on a small display of 5x5 CM he concludes
a move to be bad or wrong.
So
a) he doesn't take any tactical threats into account. Being 60 nearly
now it's no fun to see tactics
b) he concludes whether a move is good or bad based upon what fritz5.32
at his laptop said.
c) i was previous year there during the match and this guy can't play
chess anymore. I was a live witness of how he is analysing.
"oh this move sucks 3 pawns difference!"
He is doing that based upon a few seconds of analysis of fritz5.32 at
his laptop. I then suggested to give it a bit more time to get the score
up but he was too stubborn to do that!
The reason why the internet delay is not so fast is because he wants
to add 'serious analysis' first to the game before posting it online.
This is the only reason the match is not directly live but 'semi live'.
Complete nonsense.
So because one guy who didn't play a single 40 in 2 game for like 20
years now wants to add some fritz5.32 analysis, about 500 persons
who would love to follow it live need to wait.
When i criticized this previous year he was getting real pissed: "how
can i put it online without proper analysis?"
This guy is impossible.

Vincent
