  • neigeren: Ba3? is that opening theory?
  • Andastra: who knows......
  • ManuelMC: sotkke was sweeping the floor with naka
  • guitov: sure naka didn't have blacks in first round ?
  • bigwolfie: maybe he's white again because he was actually black last game
  • guitov: thinkg so
  • Metim: that's my best guess
  • bigwolfie: and they changed the result instead of the color to keep the score correct, i dunno
  • Assios: yeah, Naka was black first round
  • acirce: i'm sure he was white
  • ManuelMC: how do u know he was black?
  • Assios: from this site: http://bnbankblitz.sjakk.no/resultater.html
  • acirce: that says he was white
  • Assios: small number to the left for stokke, and to the right for naka
  • kentia: aah ok
  • Metim: the small pairing numbers are either left or right
  • Assios: yeah
  • ManuelMC: then magnus was also black?
  • acirce: oh god :)
  • ManuelMC: magnus was white and clearly won
  • acirce: number to the right means you are white. nakamura, being #1 in the group, starts with two whites, just like magnus in his.
  • ManuelMC: then naka won on time
  • ManuelMC: stokke terrible lost, he must be eating his shorts now
