Happy Holidays to you Chuck > >Round 2 of the Wilson Winter blitz tournament has completed > >In this round, the top 2 contenders faced off, Berlin Pro v. Atlanta, and they >will meet one more time. The Berlin Pro built up a nice win by move 50, but then >the short time control became a factor and it couldn't find the win, allowing a >repetition. Very lucky escape for the Atlanta. The Star Diamond got an easier >opponent in the Polgar and took advantage of that to gain the sole lead in the >tournament already after only two games. > >===================================== >Wilson Winter blitz 2005 >1 Novag Star Diamond 2154 2.0/2 >2 Mephisto Lyon 2085 1.5/2 >3 Mephisto Berlin Pro 2264 1.5/2 >4 Mephisto Atlanta 2232 1.0/2 >5 Novag Sapphire 2176 1.0/2 >6 Saitek GK2000 1887 1.0/2 >7 Novag Emerald CP 2026 0.0/2 >8 Mephisto Polgar 1982 0.0/2 >===================================== so far no surprises for the first position but i am a bit startled that the Atlanta is suffering so..and as you point out, he was lucky to back into a draw nice to see a computer win with the Black pieces but White still has a comanding lead with 6-8 points Best Steve
