How did you manage to beat the Croatian grandmasters?

Borislav Ivanov:
I dont think there was anything special in my games at all. The Croatian GMs made some horrible mistakes during our games. Of course I practiced a lot with the computer, and after beating Rybka and Houdini by 10-0 each, i was absolutelly sure that no-one was gonna stop me winning. After all the arbiters were kind of polite and intelligent, you know, the other players weren't though....

It isn't inconceivable if he discovered bad book lines, or a novelty of his own and played it over and over again.
Still, I would love to see the game scores.
His TPR for those 10-0 performances would be "rather high".

He's beating Houdini 10-0 and that's why he decided to copy Houdini's first lines in Zadar - doesn't fit
