No - it is equally bad.

Re: PRO Chess League
Apropos above-mentioned Facebook page, have to say I would expect that the penalised team should be the first to know rather than have a "Please keep it a secret until we've told them" request!

The end, sadly, for both London teams albeit Meier-Jones at the end was somewhat comical.

Apparently there was a big lemon dropped in this by Carlsen against Andreikin the other day.

Re: PRO Chess League
15 year old Daniel Nordquelle (2063) just drew with Jobava after scoring 1.5/2 in the previous round. I'm guessing his rapid (1989) and blitz (1975) ratings will be leaping up.
