It's not only more humiliating but a shame that our players are being trashed by a don't-know-who here. Who ii SS Quah?
ReplyDeleteHi SS, I respect your opinion but the choice of words are rather harsh. LT for the longest time has been our top performer and we rely too much on him to deliver the results. He is carrying the responsibility to deliver 2 missions in Hanoi. One to win the gold medal for us and two to attain his final GM norm. Pressure got better of him today, Sincerely hope that MCF can look into developing more LTs. For a start, we have Poh Yu Tian to look forward. Give him all the support and time to do well.
ReplyDeleteTotally disagree with your analysis Mr. Quah. Initially I was thinking the same as you that LT had sold himself short by agreeing to 3 quick draws. However on further analysis you will actually see that this "gamble" actually worked out in his favour.
ReplyDeleteGoing into the last round he faced the Thai CM. No disrespect to the Thai CM but it was clear from his previous 8 rounds that he was one of the weaker players amongst the 12 player field. In fact even Lye (who was performing poorly himself) had beaten him. And he came into the encounter with LT on the back of 3 consecutive defeats. http://chess-results.com/tnr635999.aspx?lan=1&art=9&fed=THA&flag=30&snr=12.
LT was odds on to win the game with both gold/silver and the long awaited GM norm in the bag.
In the actual game itself, LT was black, he started off the game solidly with his 2nd fav defence i.e the Caro Kann. Although White had an edge (engine wise), it was clear that White was merely waiting for things to happen. And had gone behind in the clock by quite a fair bit. I am not sure if LT had offered a draw here, but I believe if he did, White would have accepted. And finally in the closing stages in the game, White had gotten into serious time trouble with about a minute left and the position was still about equal. When I saw this, I was already thinking, this is a wrap, set and match for LT. For all his experience and ability, this would be kacang putih for him to put it in the bag. Out of 10 times he would have brought it home 9 times but alas perhaps because of the pressure and the occasion, the turn of events caused this to be probably the only time when he cracked. In just a few moves the position had totally changed in the Thai's favour and the Thai found some really good moves despite still being low on time.
This to me was the unlikeliest outcome that happened. It was a freak result if I may call it. LT employed the right strategy (although I doubted him at first as well) but as with all things in chess, even if we were correct, it doesn't mean it will work out every time. This is definitely a sad turn of things no doubt and Dato Tan probably can't rest as well. But we know right in the heavens that he is watching LT and he knows that LT did his best. I believe Dato Tan will continue to bless LT with another opportunity to end the nation's long wait for its first GM. LT will come back stronger no doubt. We all know he will. God bless LT.
