(VIE, 2617)
5.5
24.00

Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son got a place in the finals, while Maxime Vachier-Lagrave and Fabiano Caruana had to play each other in the semi-final. After exchanging blows at blitz Fabiano emerged victorious in the Armageddon games. As it often happens, being warmed up served him good: he won the rapid final match against Nguyen 1,5-0,5. Congratulations to Fabiano for winning Biel-2010, turning 18 and securing a place in the 2700+ club!

Hanowa Rapid: 1. Dmitry Andreikin 2. Alexander Riazantsev 3. Victor Mikhalevski

Congratulations to the winners, especially to IM Nadezhda Kosintseva, who co-won the event & obtained a GM-norm. Actually, both sisters have been on a roll lately. If you check out our daily women's live ratings, you will see them on the 3rd and 4th spots in the rankings - Kosintseva domination!

"aficionado"
Felicito a los organizadores y a todos los jugadores que llegaron a Biel. Acá en America Latina, no vemos torneos con esa fuerza ajedrecística. (Un saludo a Victor Mikhalevski, quien hace unos años jugó el open de Alajuela, acá en Costa Rica).null
