The 28th European Club Cup 2012 is taking place in Eilat, Israel, as a seven-round Swiss from October 11 to 18 (no free day). The rounds starts at 15:00 local time. The time controls are 90 minutes for 40 moves plus 30 minutes for the rest of the game with an increment of 30 seconds per move, starting from move one. The zero tolerance rule (6.6a of the FIDE Laws of Chess) will be applied: any player who arrives at the chessboard after the start of the session loses the game.
Saint-Petersburg Chess Federation, Tomsk-400 and Ashdod cemented their leads with wins, Saint-Petersburg doing so most convincingly with a 5.5-0.5 win that left it with the best tiebreak: 146.8 vs 112.0 and 102.3 for its rivals. Notable was the clean 6-0 victory of SOCAR Azerbaijan over Oslo Schakselskap.
