    Could you please publish the moves of game 2? The sensory board picked up an erroneous move, throwing off the relay.

    I thought that every aspect of the tournament was a class act, including the website, the photogenic host location, and yes, the live broadcast. A worthy memorial of Capablanca’s legendary debut in 1911. I only wish the tournament could have gotten more coverage at Chessbase. But that’s why we have Mig Greengard! With a competitive American playing in the field i think the tournament had the potential for more exposure or media coverage due to the U.S. market interest. Congrats on a class act and I hope to follow the San Sebastian tournament in future years!

    Nakamura played very well in this tournament. In 2010, I expect another great games in San Sebastian (with more fighting games, short draws are boring!)
