  • Logic Puzzle 2010 book - #47 Chess Champions help

    I have gone through this puzzle a million times and still can not come up with the answer in the key. The answer key lists Avery’s time as 15:22, but the last clue states, “between Avery and the person who played the English Opening, one played the longest game and the other won in 2005.” Since Avery did not win in 2005, she had to have played the longest game - which is 20:09.
    What am I missing?

    My copy has different wording for the last clue:

    "Between Avery and the person who played the English Opening, one played the second-longest game and the other won in 2005."

    The second-longest game length was 15:22 as shown in the answer key.
