5-1 was the magical score in the Open this year.
Finishing in a large tie at the top were GMs
Igor Novikov, Leonid Yudasin, Alex Shabalov, Alex Stripunsky, Gennadi
Zaitshik,
71 games are posted and it is the FINAL pgn
file
Team Tournament Final Standings are below.
New York's Lev Milman had quite a tournament! He defeated
GM Maurice Ashley in rd 3, drew with GM Alex Onischuk in Rd 4 and defeated GM Ildar Ibragimov in Rd 5.
He played GM Alex Shabalov in the final round, with a win giving him
clear first after Ziatshik and Goldin drew. He ran into the Shabalov
buzzsaw and couldn't pull out what would have been one of the more
memorable performances in recent US chess history. Still, nothing to be
ashamed of!! WGM Zhao Qin Peng is
also having a great tournament having drawn GM Shabalov and just
defeated GM Alex Fishbein to stand at 4-1.
Round 6 pairings are posted here for the Open
