There are still no moves shown on the diagram. Is that game still going on?

She broke w/ ...g6, maybe ....f5 was the way to go. He was dead in water at that point .Didn't put Fritz on to tweet about gm's weak play; she looks like experienced FM /IM strength, had to hold slightly uncomfortable endgame. Draw.Expect them to have game/s running DGTefficiently tomorrow...:)

He felt sick in the first round and made a quick draw. Apparently he didn't get better after and decided to quit the tournament.

FM Marc Ghannoum too is not paired for the round and had to forfeit the third round . He too said that he was sick.

[Hugh Brodie]

Re: Quebec Open now underway!

On the French board, Marc Ghannoum said he hoped to be back in the tournament on Wednesday.

Re: Quebec Open now underway!

Doesn't look like there's a lot of fighting spirit on the top boards this year.

Re : Quebec Open now underway!

Leonid Gerzhoy is winning against GM Lenderman. He seems pretty close to a GM norm!


EDIT: Being in time pressure, he completely missed his endgame and drew... Still a good result though.

Finally, there was a drawish position reached only.
