No that was not the case. He played first the programs that have also mobility in their program. The other participants had that to a lesser extend. If i have more or less the same evaluation, or a big part of it is saying the same, but i have more, then logically it'll win when having an normal position. As you know there is a big rule: never change something at your program short before the championship, or during the championship. I don't know much commercial people that do without that rule. >Uri
