It’s Hou Yifan, Humpy, Kosteniuk and Cramling. BTW Hou Yifan scored a GM norm in the WJCC with performance rating of 2661!
Magnus Carlsen to hit 2800 if he wins another game at Bilbao. He won his second against Aronian last night after giving up 2 pawns! The sky is the limit for the new provisional Elo leader.
01 Carlsen off 2796,1 +21,1 27 3 1990
02 Anand off 2790,4 -7,6 6 1 1969
03 Morozevich off 2787,0 -1 9 1 1977
04 Topalov off 2785,8 +8,8 6 1 1975
05 Ivanchuk off 2781,9 +0,9 46 5 1969
WCC 2008
Both white winners won crushing victories and need only a draw next to advance to the final.
Hou Yifan 1-0 Humpy
Kosteniuk 1-0 Cramling
With his string of good results, Ivanchuk finally goes top (provisionally) and Anand drops to 5th., his lowest ever for a long time. The Official FIDE October, 2008 list may shock many chess fans!
01 Ivanchuk off 2791,3 +10,3 48 5 1969
02 Morozevich off 2787,0 -1 9 1 1977
03 Carlsen off 2786,2 +11,2 29 3 1990
04 Topalov off 2785,2 +8,2 8 1 1975
05 Anand off 2783,8 -14,2 8 1 1969
First finalist Kosteniuk. Hou Yifan blundered in mutaul time trouble when better. Now tie-break.
Kosteniuk 1.5-0.5 Cramling
Hou Yifan 1.0-1.0 Humpy
14 year-old Hou Yifan beats Humpy and will meet Kosteniuk in WCC Final! Makes us feel very old indeed!
Hou Yifan’s greatest escape! K+R+P draws wth K+R+4P. Great fighting spirit lets her live to fight another day. Very demoralising for Kosteniuk playing white.
Kosteniuk 1.5 Hou Yifan 0.5
Another incredible escape by Hou Yifan with K+R+P vs K+R+3P.
Kosteniuk leads 2-1 with 1 game to go, but is unable to land the killer punch.
:mrgreen:
:-o
Of course I already know about the new Stonemaster.info and the new sections that are going to be built.Anyway, thanks for passing the info along. I'm sure there are
Very impressive! That’s how a tournament website should be maintained. On the dot results & highlighted games with light commentary
