Super-final tournament of 58th Russian Individual Chess Championship has started today. Event though a prize fund is bigger then last year (130.000$), Alexander Grischuk has withdrawn from the championship race for some reason. Evgeniy Najer had to leave tourney due to sudden illness.
GM Alex Finkel wrote an article about "New Kramnik", who is trying to play sharp and attractive chess. Losing to Svidler, who is in great shape, is not a shame. But I don't understand why this boring Petroff defence. Sergei Rublevski, who finished 7th in just ended World Chess Cup, won against Evgeny Bareev (finished 5th at the same tourney) in Tarasch line of French defence.
Sergei Rublevsky (2652) - Evgeny Bareev (2675) 1-0
Peter Svidler (2740) - Vladimir Kramnik (2739) 1-0
Dmitry Jakovenko (2644) - Vadim Zvjaginsev (2659) draw
Alexander Khalifman (2653) - Sergey Volkov (2614) draw
Alexander Motylev (2632) - Alexey Dreev (2694) draw
Evgeny Tomashevsky (2564) - Alexander Morozevich (2707) draw
