Meltwater Champions Chess Tour PGN

Post by Ferdy »

Does anyone can share a pgn with movetime or timeleft after move info of the past Meltwater Champions Chess Tours like Skilling Open, Airthings Masters, Opera Euro Rapid and Magnus Carlsen Invitational. Just the prelim games are enough. I would like to generate time pressure stats, etc.

I was able to get Chess.com PGN links with time 'clk' tags of 'Magnus Carlsen Invitational (2021)' thanks to a link of ChessGames. Just go to the following sites and search All Games. Then, there are pointing-down arrows below b1 square which downloads the PGN of each day:
The same was true for 'Opera Euro Rapid (2021)' (ChessGames link):
The same still holds for 'Airthings Masters 2020/21' (ChessGames link):
'Skilling Open (2020)' is also there (ChessGames link). Bingo!
DISCLAIMER: I have not downloaded all the PGNs, I only browsed all the sites (4*9 = 36, so opening 36 sites and downloading a bunch of PGNs will be a long, boring task). Some PGNs might have games of the previous days and thus duplicated games may be expected. It will not be a problem for you knowing your programming skills, but be aware. I saw that the second-to-last report of Skilling Open does not include neither 'All Games' summary nor 'clk' tags just by chance... I do not know if it is the only case (I would say that it is the only case of lack of 'All Games' summary, but I do not know about 'clk' tags).

Good luck!

Regards from Spain.

Hello Ferdinand:

I would like to know the time pressure of Grischuk in tournaments where he performed well, for example at Linares 2009, then compare with the rest of players of those tournaments. Disgracefully, I did not find any PGNs of Linares 2009 with time stats. Grischuk is well known to put himself in time pressure. I remember a game at classical TC where he played the white pieces and spent something like 45 minutes at move 10 or so, yet getting a draw. I would say this is not the only time: in other games he had played ten or fifteen moves with five or so minutes on his clock until reach the 40th move and managed not to lose those games. He is an interesting player in my POV.

Regards from Spain.
