Subject: How can a 2000-rated player STILL SUCK?
|
I was an expert long ago, really I was!! I might even be one now (hit that rating at bullet on a few servers), but even then, I see players with that rating and above hanging pieces. I see GMs losing 20 games in a row to 3500-rated computers online. How does this happen? -- Ray Gordon, Author http://www.cybersheet.com/easy.html Seduction Made Easy.

Oh I know. I still remember seeing a very strong GM and former US Champion (not Bisguier) get clobbered so badly at one-minute chess by a prodigy that you'd have thought it was an A-player.
