2011 Kings v. Queens Tournament

What can I say? The ladies (Queens) got whopped badly.  Can someone, please, wipe that jerk-butt smirk off Nakamura's mug?  Someone needs to slap a "kick me" sign on that young 'man's' back for a few weeks.  Geez!

I don't know what all that folderol means about individual prizes, etc.  Obviously, the players on the losing home went home with some money, and I'm glad to see it. 

I'm so happy to see GM Alexandra Kosteniuk was able to pull herself out of her chessplaying funk to lead the Queens with 5.5 points.  Go, Alexandra, Go! 

Onward and upward, ladies.  Forget those male schmucks in St. Louis - and make your plans for revenge.....
