What's with all the draws??!! Not the most inspiring tournament I ever saw!
Re: Lothians Congress - Graham Kerr - 02-10-2011
yeah, seems like it was more important not to lose.
nice win for Alan Birnie, probably the most entertaining game shown over the weekend

Well done Andy on what looks like a very successful first Congress outing for the sensory boards! What was the feedback at the Congress, anybody have any comments?
Re: Lothians Congress - Alan Tate - 02-10-2011
To put it in perspective: The winner, Dmitriy Payada, lost a game and still won the open outright!
Maybe some anti-draw rule should be looked at with the live boards. It's a weekend tournament, not the World Championship.
I'd seriously consider using this rule in the Scottish as well.

But he also won more games (3) than anyone else, with the exception of Jonathan Grant, who also lost a game.
His score includes a full point bye in round 1, due to an odd number of players.
