Looks like we're in the throes of some middlegame tension. He who's isp
pulls the plug first....loses!


By the way, there was some discussion of the rating differences between
Canadians and americans. Most people already know (including most americans)
that the uscf ratings are inflated compared to their CFC counterparts, with
very few exceptions. From my experience, I had the opportunity to play
americans in 1997 when many of them came to my city of Winnipeg to compete
in the Canadian Open event. We had 11 Grandmasters compete in that
tournament and it was won clear first by GM Julian Hodgson. There is a
crosstable he
http://www.chess.ca/xtable.asp?TNum=199707060

At this point, I had only been playing tournament chess for 2 years and had
done very little study of the game. My rating going into the tournament was
1859. As you can see for yourself, my only loss to an american was to 2144
rated Rod Brown. It was a good game and he outplayed me. I drew 2211 rated
Curt Brasket with my Dutch Defence. I won all three of my other games that
were against americans, including 2080 uscf rated Don Aldrich. Here is the
game:

I've since changed over to the 5.g3 (main line) against the Lasker From
instead of the older 5.d4 knight sacrifice line played in the game. However,
the line chosen was good enough to beat a uscf "expert".

Interesting question. The line is supposed to go:

1.f4 e5 2.fxe5 d6 3.exd6 Bxd6 4.Nf3 g5 5.d4?! g4 6.Ng5 f5! (trapping the
knight and threatening 7...h6) 7.e4 h6 8.Nh3 (believe it or not this is a
line) 8....gxh3 9.Qh5+ Kf8 10.Bc4 Rh7! -/+ (an improvement over the old move
10....Qe8?). There is still quite a bit of juice in the position and black
must find several only moves to hold his material advantage and win the
ending.

My opponent chose a strange continuation that I had never seen, nor
considered befo 7....f4?! Now I should have simply played 8.e5!
immediately and if 8....Qxg5 9.exd6 Qh4+ 10.Kd2 cxd6 11.Qe1+ Kxe1 and white
has excellent play for the win with the bishop pair and better pawns

in a lower section come the big-money events, like the
New York Open, the World Open, and so forth. That kind

My statement wasn't based exclusively on my personal experiences my

I'm not going to repeat what I said in that post. You're going to have

More talking out of your ass with compete fabricated lies. I bet you
can't name one single example of this. Just ONE example. The truth is
that Canadian players are STRONGER than american players with a
similiar rating. They don't need to "throw games" to be effectively

New York Open, the World Open, and so forth.

You better get your facts straight my pathetic cowardly friend who
hides behind aliases....... It was two americans that got caught
cheating in the world open. There has never been a single case of any
Canadian even being accused of cheating on a major usa tournament. The
reason is that Canadians, on average, have much higher morals and
sense of fair play.

As I said, there is ample proof out there. When you're not busy
cowering from your own shadow, do some research and you'll find that
much more often than not, when Canadians and americans lock horns on
the chessboard, the Canadians perform better than their
ratings......the americans worse. There are, of course, a few

Most interesting is the fact that he only made Expert because the
CFC
added one point per game to each player's rating under 2200 active
from 2004-2006 - else he would still be a lowly A player. According
to
the CFC, some players gained as many as 200 points from this rather
dubious sounding adjustment.

Look, Skippy: I have no position on this, on whether
Canadian ratings or American ratings are higher or
the same. All I'm saying is that these guys themselves
*bragged* about winning the big bucks by beating the
system, or if you prefer, outwitting folks like Bill
Goichberg who thought they had a handle on this,
but were in fact quite clueless.



They don't need to "throw games" to be effectively
underrated in uscf events. They already are underrated.

Perhaps. But by throwing games they were able
to compete in an even lower section. Since you
are an imbecile, let me give a simplified example:

Suppose a player from Canada was of 2100 strength
USCF and he wanted to avoid playing American
sandbaggers in the Class A section. Instead of
throwing games to get down to 1999, this guy would
of course ALREADY be somewhere in the Class A
range, having been doing this routinely for years. So
he throws games until he gets into the Class B
section, where the Experts who have sandbagged to
play down a section are no longer a threat. In this
section, the Class B section, all he needs to worry
about are the myriad American sandbaggers who
are mainly of Class A strength. At 2100 strength,
the Canadian sandbagger has a huge advantage
over the American sandbaggers, apart from a very
few who have made it their life's work to sandbag,
who have studiously avoided ever establishing a
decent USCF rating which would raise their floor.



You better get your facts straight my pathetic cowardly friend who
hides behind aliases....... It was two americans that got caught
cheating in the world open.

Fine. Nobody said that Americans don't sandbag,
or that Americans don't cheat. That is beside the
point, Skippy.

There has never been a single case of any
Canadian even being accused of cheating on a major usa tournament.

Wow. I suppose you typed that while keeping
a 90%-straight face! LOL

Look, Skippy: nobody can possibly know such
a thing, as it would require "omniscience". That
is a quality attributed by men to God -- never to
mere mortals. You really are an imbecile, Skip.


The reason is that Canadians, on average, have much higher morals and
sense of fair play.

The ones I dealt with were very friendly and
even generous. The fellow who hosted me for
that event spent a good deal of money on my
account. I have no complaints, apart from
getting zero in the way of sleep and thus playing
below par. Tip: NEVER ride the bus to Canada
in the summertime!


As I said, there is ample proof out there. When you're not busy
cowering from your own shadow, do some research and you'll find that
much more often than not, when Canadians and americans lock horns on
the chessboard, the Canadians perform better than their
ratings......the americans worse. There are, of course, a few
exceptions.

I watched a game where IM Igor Ivanov was
stomping GM Walter Browne. Unfortunately,
time pressure ensued and the IM choked it,
losing. The clowns at Chess Lies published
this as a sort of brilliancy for the GM! LOL

Projection is a remarkable thing; not only

Interesting. But now the question is: are you
ever going to face your inner fears? Oh, and
Skippy, you misspelled "lowly". By adding on
an extra vowel, you change the pronunciation
from two to three syllables. Thus: low-el-ee.
Of course, this word has but two syllables:
low-lee. Keep trying, Skip. Don't let your low
IQ deter you from your quest to master the
American language -- the language which will
no doubt become universal throughout the
entire world (whether George Bush manages
to conquer it or not).
