Bastia: sixth and seventh round

Pavel Tregubov

There were two rounds in Bastia today with the top of the table becoming clearer: Krishnan Sasikiran, Ivan Cheparinov and Hrant Melkumyan lead with six points out of seven. The qualification score will almost certainly be 6.5 or more, so these three are almost there.

In the fifth round the 'drawn' game between Arnold and Mamedov was given a 'double-zero' because of the local rule where 'draws by mutual agreement are forbidden'. So these two players have both been handicapped half-a-point.
