Jul-31-12    Beholder: No Ivanchuk?! Jul-31-12    LoveThatJoker: No Kryvoruchko either. LTJ Jul-31-12    blade2012: Thanks CG! Jul-31-12    blade2012: <Beholder> Ivanchuk had never participate in a Ukrainian Championship Aug-02-12    HeMateMe: Never? are you sure of that? I think Chuckie is old enough to have played for the old USSR, before Ukraine won back their independance. Maybe there has never been enough money to interest him? Still, you would think he might have played it once or twice. Aug-03-12    kamalakanta: He played in the 73rd Ukranian Championship in 2004. Ivanchuk vs D Shkuran, 2004 Aug-03-12    kamalakanta: Apparently that is the only time he played it. Aug-05-12    blade2012: <kamalakanta> you're right! http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail... It was a KO tournament Aug-06-12    Peligroso Patzer: In today's penultimate round, <Korobov vs. Eljanov> and <Fedorchuk vs. Volokitin> both apparently ended <1-0>. I'm not sure of tie-break rules, but these results virtually clinch the championship for Anton Korobov.
