After his hiatus from classical chess, Leinier Dominguez has climbed to the tenth place in the live ratings list. However, he could have lost a big share of the Elo points garnered since the US Championship had he lost his round six game against Kaido Kulaots, the underdog in Dortmund. Kulaots was a piece down with Black but had strong attacking chances as compensation. Dominguez gave back the piece and ended up getting a 44-move draw.
Meanwhile, Ian Nepomniachtchi defeated Liviu-Dieter Nisipeanu in barely 19 moves from the white side of a Petroff Defence. The defending champion has won two and lost two in Dortmund this year. Teimour Radjabov v Daniel Fridman and Richard Rapport v Radoslaw Wojtaszek finished drawn.
