Cups are waiting for their "heroes".
A real show has been demonstrated by GM S.Ionov and M.Matlakov. Ending: queen versus a rook with a pawn, it is a draw at the first sight but has been transformed into the queen versus the rook. The more experienced Maestro has not yielded the win!
K.Annenkov, the main organizer of the memorial is summing up.
GM E.Alekseev (8/10) is best among the experienced chessplayers.
GM V.Popov (7/9) has second index.
GM D.Yevseev, 7.5/10
