Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Svidler is back on top form.
a boring round after 3 hard fighting rounds. Lastin should be fined for his game against Svidler.
Susan, how about posting the queen ending from Ryazantsev-Vitjugov game?
Over 3000? Wow! What a great headline! Is this a Guiness World Record? Wow whee!!
Yup. World record. Way to go, schmuck.
