Chinito overclocking was put down after 3ยบ round (we had 2 very strange reset),
and so far i know we ply with an 1600 non XP. Any case Tiger was nearly in all
moves with same depth or superior than Chinito without losing positional
evaluation strenght :)

Yes, i was there when your clock flag fall, but i need to ask Zibi what was the
result of the game, i don't was sure if he surrended or reclaim the win. The
game was one of this who is interesting to be there in live, i think Pharaon get
an interesting position but Tiger finally takes him the position.

It's a pity you don't was with us this year Christophe, there was an excellent
Oporto wine for free at the final ceremony.
