In Høstturneringen (Nordstrand sjakklubb) thursday the biggest upset was Amelia Nordquelle (1085) beating Lars Kveli (1728). Lars learnt the hard way that 1085 might be very dangerous. Amelia is registered with 94 games and have lost, lost , lost and started winning.
Right! Let's equate 1700 to 2700.
What comes to your mind regarding "prodigy" is just that. Made up. Nothing relevent to the discussion, as nobody else adheres to your fantasy.
My agenda isnt about proofing that a 1300 can beat a 2700, Its something else. In this discussion some people says that 1300s isnt good chessplayers. I think the 1300s are underestimated. But I dont think they will beat 2700s, not even IMs, in a game with equal timecontrols. It can theoretically and unrealistically happen, but I dont think so.
In my dreams Amelia is a prodigy, and Lykke certainly is. I hope to write more about them after Oslo Chess festival.
Results when players wins 600-700 points up happens sometimes, but 1400 up is too much. I think it was fun that Amelia won 643 up.
