    Alexander Onischuk is not a stranger to the Ugra region. He always participates in “Anatoliy Karpov” tournaments. Onischuk and Bologan have the largest number of personal fans here; some of them came just to see a single game. Well it didn’t help Alex and Viorel - they lost in the second round.

    03.12.2005   Who are the Favorites?

    01.12.2005   Vladimir Malakhov: A harmonious system is necessary

Also it is necessary to mention that the Norwegian who became 15 years old on the first day of the second Round, fully has lived up the hopes expected of him. Here in Khanty-Mansiysk he has beaten the experienced GM Zurab Azmajparashvili's in the first round after tie-break, and has made serious application for further advancement. Who will in the end be able to stop the young Magician?    Read more...
