| Aug-19-07 | | pawnofdoom: Too bad Bacrot isn't playing. He probably has other tournaments he has to go to. I put my money on Bauer, Tkachiev, and Sokolov, because they're highest rated, and those three happen to all be in the top four at the moment. And it's also nice to see Lagrave playing. Doing great for a 16-year-old. |
|
| Aug-19-07 | | percyblakeney: http://www.europe-echecs.com/ seems to have better coverage than the official site. |
|
| Aug-20-07 | | Wilson H. L.: Vachier-Lagrave is doing very well, good to see this youngster tying for 1st place! By the way there's two Fontaine vs Tkachiev, I suppose it's an error. |
|
| Aug-23-07 | | Youjoin: What a game of Vachier-Lagrave on the 10th round against Fontaine!
A mating net with an underpromotion
GM Fontaine,R (2567) - GM Vachier-Lagrave,M (2595) [A89] FRA-ch Aix-les-Bains (10), 23.08.2007 1.Nf3 f5 2.d4 Nf6 3.g3 g6 4.Bg2 Bg7 5.0-0 0-0 6.c4 d6 7.Nc3 Nc6 8.b3 e5 9.dxe5 dxe5 10.Ba3 e4 11.Bxf8 Qxf8 12.Nd4 Nxd4 13.Qxd4 Be6 14.Qd2 h5 15.Rad1 h4 16.Qg5 Kf7 17.Qf4 Qc5 18.Nb5 hxg3 19.hxg3 Rc8 20.Nd4 Bd7 21.g4 Nxg4 22.Nxf5 Bxf5 23.Rd5 Qxd5 24.cxd5 Be5 25.Qc1 Bh2+ 26.Kh1 Rh8 27.Qc4 Bd6+ 28.Kg1 Bh2+ 29.Kh1 b5 30.Qxb5 e3 31.Bf3 Nxf2+ 32.Rxf2 exf2 33.Kg2 Bg1 34.Qc6 Rh2+ 35.Kg3 f1N+ 36.Kf4 Rh4+ 37.Kg5 Be3+ 38.Kxh4 g5+ 39.Kh5 0-1 |

| Aug-24-07 | | Youjoin: Vachier-Lagrave and Tkachiev drew their games today, so I suppose that Vachier-Lagrave is the new France champion, winning 5 games out 11. |
|
| Aug-24-07 | | percyblakeney: <I suppose that Vachier-Lagrave is the new France champion> I haven't seen anything about what tiebreak system they are using, Tkachiev and Vachier-Lagrave are even, Tkachiev won the game between them, while Vachier-Lagrave won more games. |
|
| Aug-24-07 | | percyblakeney: My guess is that there will be a rapid tiebreak match between Tkachiev and Vachier-Lagrave tomorrow, in 2003 Bacrot won the title in a rapid playoff: http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail... |
|
Aug-24-07
 | | sisyphus: Meanwhile, in the Women's Championship Milliet beat Collas in the last round, putting them in a tie for first with 8.5/11. |
|
Aug-24-07
| | sisyphus: The official site says (pardon my translation from French) playoffs on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Central European Summer time. Two games at 15' + 5"; if necessary, two games at 5'+5"; if necessary, another two games at 5'+5". If that doesn't produce a winner, there's one game at 5'+5". No description of whether there's draw odds or what. |
|
| Aug-25-07 | | percyblakeney: Tkachiev won the European Championship in a rapid tiebreak, maybe Vachier-Lagrave will regret taking that 7 move draw in the last round. |
|
Aug-25-07
| | sisyphus: In the first game Tkachiev - Vachier-Lagrave 1/2-1/2, Collas - Milliet 1-0 |
|
Aug-25-07
| | sisyphus: In the second game, Milliet - Collas 1/2-1/2; Collas wins the Women's Championship 1.5-0.5. Tkachiev - Vachier-Lagrave 1/2-1/2, score 1-1 |
|
Aug-25-07
| | sisyphus: Third game apparently drawn. Vachier-Lagrave - Tkhackiev score 1.5-1.5 |
|
Aug-25-07
| | sisyphus: Fourth game: Tkachiev - Vachier-Lagrave 0-1. Vachier-Lagrave wins the French Championship 2.5-1.5 |
|
