I think a dual feed from more than one server was the plan but this has yet to be confirmed

I had to go to the 2seeitlive site itself and access them from there
Yes one option but messy - not sure if that is the plan?

Thanks for the link, James. The championship website still has the round 2 games when you go to "live"!!

Another feed at http://rs7.blueapricot.com/british/2011 ... 3a/tfd.htm

I would however recommend going to the live site once they have sorted that as 'either' might be right

Thanks for the link James. You can also change the 3a to 3b for boards 7-14.

But don't rely on that please use the official link once they get the main site sorted as either could change

Griffiths-Hawkins on board 9 looks completely mad - but the fact that Hawkins has taken next to no time suggests it's some kind of theory.

Does anyone know what's going on board 9? Is it theory? Is it just completely bonkers? Haven't a scooby this end...

Yes, it was all following Marin's analysis in his latest book on the English, though Rhys Griffiths deviated from Marin's recommendation just now by playing 16.Be3 rather than 16.Qd8.

Looks dangerous for Black to try to keep his exchange, say by 16... Qxd1 17. Rxd1, where is the rook going then, surely not 17... Ra6 18. Bc5, when White must have excellent compensation.

The official site is still wrong an hour after starting so probably only forum members watching :roll:
