  • Dresden round 9: team race heats up!!

    Israel beat first-place Armenia by 2.5-1.5, 2nd seed Ukraine defeated top seed Russia by the same score, and Serbia beat fourth seed Azerbaijan, so it's really starting to get interesting in Dresden!:) I believe this puts Israel into the lead with only two rounds to go.

    Armenia has been using only four of their five listed players in all but one match through round nine, and GM Sargissian has been a steamroller so far, with one of the two highest performance ratings (GM Topalov of Bulgaria is the other), but perhaps the strain is catching up to them. GM Aronian lost to GM Gelfand on board one in the top match today.
