The 2010 Chess Olympiad takes place from September 21st to October 3rd in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia. It is an 11-round Swiss System team event, in which each team has four players with one reserve. Time control: 90 minutes/40 moves + 30 minutes + 30 seconds/move as of move one. Game start: rounds 1-10 at 9 AM UTC (5 AM New York / 2 AM Pacific daylight), and round 11 at 5 AM UTC (1 AM New York / 10 PM Pacific daylight) Rest day: September 26th (after round 5) and October 2nd (after round 10). |
It was a brutal round, and one both top Russian teams suffered in. After edging out China, the third highest rated team, Hungary put a solid claim to the gold by beating Russia 1 by 2.5-1.5, with Leko on board one beating... Grischuk. Indeed, it was a surprise to many to see Russia playing one of the top contenders without their top board Kramnik, and whatever the reason, there is no question he was missed.
Lev Aronian facing rising star Ian Nepomniachtchi.
Another clash of the giants brought Levon Aronian’s Armenia against Russia 2, spearheaded by Nepomniachtchi and the young wolves. The top boards were unable to break the deadlock, and Armenia’s fourth board, Pashikian (2639) was their hero of the day as he defeated Timofeev (2690).
Completing the trio of teams to remain on 100% after five rounds was Georgia, led by Baadur Jobava, fresh from his victory over Carlsen in the previous round. They faced the young guns from Vietnam, who had surpassed expectations with one gritty win after the other, but this time the Georgians came through with a spectacular 3.5-0.5 win. The Georgian players have been the heaviest scoring team thus far, and their performance ratings on all boards show.
Georgia's fourth board, GM Levan Pantsulaia (2599) is 4.0/4 so far.
Right behind with four wins and a draw, are Ukraine who soundly beat Bosnia 3-1. Ivanchuk left no room for misunderstandings as he defeated Ivan Sokolov, and continued his undefeated romp. Right beside them are the Netherlands, who drew Poland 2-2, with a loss by Loek van Wely compensated for by a win by Anish Giri.
After yesterday’s shock loss to Baadur Jobava, one might wonder how Carlsen might respond today against Spain.

It is hard to understand black's plan here. In terms of development he is now behind two tempi (white's queen is developed and he has castled already), and though one might argue the bad bishop has been exchanged off, the bishop also helps keep the king safe around the dark squares. 15...Ne7 16.f4 0-0 17.g4 f6 18.Rf2 Nc6 19.Raf1 Qa5 20.c3 Qxa2 21.g5 fxg5 22.f5 Qf7 23.cxd4.

The match between Norway and Spain ended in a draw.
Another curious game was played between Nigel Short and Laurent Fressinet. The Brit is well-known to enjoy playing openings whose heyday was in the 19th century, to the delight of theoreticians and opening books authors, and sure enough brought to the table a variation of the Two Knights that has never been played by top GMs. At least not in the last 100 years...
France drew against England with wins by Short against Fressinet, and Feller
against Howell.

This is easily the first top GM game with this variation, a line that is usually discussed in opening manuals on the Two Knights or games between much lower-rated players.

13...Kf7. 13...Kh5 was the alternate possibility, and though it can hold, it would be a brave (insane) man who played this without having analyzed it first. 14.Qd2! threatening Nc3 to continue development and the attack on the hyper exposed king. 14...Bb4 (Taking the knight with 14...Kxh4? loses to 15.Nc3 Qd8 16.Qe2!!

The Russian team's top boards (left to right): Alexandra Kosteniuk, Nadezhda
Kosinsteva, and Tatiana Kosintseva.
In the women’s section, the clash of the titans took place between the two top rated teams, Russia 1 and China, and both teams fielded their stars. The match was a bloody one with the only draw being between Tatiana Kosintseva (2573) and Hou Yifan (2578), while world champion Kosteniuk was not in her best day as she lost to ex-world champion Zhao Xue. The Russians were saved by two wins, one very powerful one by Tatiana’s sister, Nadezhda Kosintseva (2565) over Ju Wenjun (2516), and a last-minute victory by Valentina Gunina (2465) over Huang Qian (2436).
