On a more interesting note, Mamedyarov wins as black after marching his king to h3 with queens on the board vs. Wei Yi. http://www.2700chess.com/games/wei-mamedyarov-r6-shen-zhen-2016-06-24 | ||

went 4/4, beat a 2000.  Raised my USCF rating by about a 100, from 1577 to 1670 (though to be fair, my USCF rating is still provisional since I haven't played 25 USCF rated OTB games yet, so it's can jump really high) | ||

I'm sitting at 1300 in standard but just a mere 1k in blitz. Anyone else have this "Problem" as well? I guess I'm just not very good with sub 15 min time controls. | ||

Myself for example, I don't play a lot of bullet, so my bullet ratings are several hundred points lower than my other time control ratings. | ||

Due to the timecontrol: 180 min + 15sec per move and good hardware the games are very high caliber and the UI presentation of the games is quite superb. I follow it for a couple of years now and am regularly suprised that it doesn't seem to pique the interest of TL much. http://tcec.chessdom.com/live.php | ||
