Wow. Being in the lead for so long, Blom couldn’t think about ending the game if it wasn’t in the first position. And it would be very bad attitude if EireAbu decided to call it a day the minute after he started winning. That’s why, at these levels, things should always be arranged before the game begins.

Could've been a bot. Say nothing say nothing; however if he really did play for 11 hours I'd put in him in serious contention for being the best online player around.
