  Penguincw: Another nice tournament win for Pentala Harikrishna. This could might as well be his year.
Mar-10-12  alcausin: It seems Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian have resurrected!
Mar-10-12  apexin: Whos Ra1 Mueller?
Mar-10-12  brankat: Is the tournament over? And we get the page now?
Mar-10-12  waustad: Ra1 Mueller is Ralf Mueller. If you look at the FIDE site, there are 3 of them.
Mar-10-12  waustad: Excellent result by Alejandro Ramirez-Alvarez who is getting closer to 2600. He won 2 more games that didn't make it here and ended up with 6.5/9.
Mar-11-12  galdur: Almost 500 participants. An incredible undertaking.

Mar-11-12  PhilFeeley: I watched this on chessbomb, and pestered <CG.com> to add a page before it started. I guess they didn't have the manpower to do it. They focused on Reykjavik.
Mar-11-12  cadwallon: Christian Bauer finished a point off the lead. Not bad, though, when you consider he didn't bothering showing up until round 3.
