The 5th edition of ShakkiNet Chess Tournament was held from 9th to 17th June, 2014 in Helsinki, the capital and largest city in Finland.

GM Vasily Yemelin (Russia) emerged a clear winner, finishing with 7,5/9 point, half a point ahead of the runner-up Ebeling.

Local FM Daniel Ebeling collected 7/9 points and fulfilled not only an IM norm, but also a GM norm. This is Ebeling’s last IM norm, thus the Finnish is expecting a title confirmation soon.

IM Mikael Agopov remained third with 6/9 points.
