What does 6 and 2 going mean? I am watching an annotated chess game, and the narration goes like this:


  The game I am about to show you was played in the last round of an open tournament in Bad Weise, Germany. My score was 6 and 2 going.


What does the last sentence mean?
"6 and 2 going" is not idiomatic English or chess-speak.

My first assumption is that there are words missing and the speaker actually said or meant "My score was 6 and 2 going into this round." This means that s/he earned 6 points out of the possible 8 in the previous 8 rounds (you get 1 point for a win, 1/2 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss) before the game being annotated.
