Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
The leaders Anand and Ivanchuk cannot be reached with one round to go. They have equal points. They meet in the final round, Anand has white. The tournament could not end better.
If one of them wins, will he win the tournament champion, or will there be a mini match final? What happens in the case of a draw?
Champion Chucky!
Rafael is Ivanchuk
if he is then it will be very strange since Ivanchuk said he almost never plays on the net, and also he is always participating in some kind of competition, so where can he find the time?
