I’m a sporting guy …
And am going to assume that Chip is going to make it, though I haven’t heard back from my latest PM. But like Pshabi, I’m eager to play. So if there are no objections from tournament officials, maybe we could play this evening, with the following caveat …
1) If I beat Pshabi and later beat Chip, I advance to round 3 (least likely scenario)
2) If I lose to Pshabi, and later beat Chip, Pshabi advances to round 3 (still rather unlikely)
3) Win or lose against Pshabi, if I later lose to Chip, our match becomes an exhibition, and Pshabi and Chip play as regularly scheduled. (most likely)
Pshabi, are you game? It would have to be later this evening Pacific time.
