DanaSah is playing the IV Open Spring of Gros

Post by pedrox »

DanaSah is playing the IV Open Spring of Gros (San Sebastian).

I wonder because there are not more computers that play this kind of tournaments (with humans), I've found all kinds of facilities to play, Ithe organization has left me a laptop (notebook). The time control of game 1h30m increase 30 seconds per move, the program plays with the rules for FIDE computers, the more complicated is to make the computer and desk clocks are synchronized. I set the clock as 90+20 time for me to move the pieces

Game one:

DanaSah (2500) vs Veronica Iglesias (1784)

Hi Jorge,

On the next page you will find pairings, results and a little chronicle (spanish) of the week.

http://www.ajedrezvasco.com/crea_tor.ph ... maGros.trn

There you'll find a link to chess-results which will be updated every pairings and results. On this page you'll see a link with games "There are 10 games available for download" (each round)

http://chess-results.com/tnr12505.aspx? ... t=YES&m=-1

Every week (7) I will post the game of DanaSah. It will be a good opportunity to see how DanaSah plays with players from 1800 to 2400 ELO points.

In the last 2 years I have tried to play the Open International San Sebastian with DanaSah, which has more level this tournament, but I always arrived late for registration and the number of seats in the last 2 years has been limited to 120, maybe next year.

True, after move 12 ... g6 all moves of the black are bad, when we play this game we were quite young, Kai Ming Tung would have about 13-14 years and soon see that g6 was losing.

After Kai has improved a lot, on this occasion he mistake by not doing g6, I think was a mistake because of the pressure that he did not know how to play the computer, he saw that his position was delicate and crash.

DanaSah not played the fourth game of the tournament and took the loss.

On Friday I had an operation in hospital, simply and with local anesthesia and although I left the hospital walking to 5 minutes but now I need several heals daily, this made me desist from going to play saturday, it is possible that these heal need about 3 weeks so I'm not sure I can continue playing the tournament.
