Oct-29-09    HeMateMe: I guess its custom to drop in the obligatory 'first!" I hope its a well played tournament. I'm not too familiar with these players, but i'm sure the games are of high quality. Oct-29-09    redwhitechess: Somehow this looks like not a complete games from the tournament. Zhou Weiqi vs Andriasin in round 9 can't be found. Five players shared first : 1.GM Volkov, Sergey 7.0 2. GM Zhou, Weiqi 7.0 3. GM Rychagov, Andrey 7.0 4. GM Deviatkin, Andrei 7.0 5. GM Melkumyan, Hrant 7.0 little write up: http://red-white-chess.blogspot.com... Jan-12-10    Rama: What was the time control in this tournament? In many games the play seems sort of haphazard.
