7 minutes

Visitors of the tournament can take photos in the chess room for 7 minutes at the start of the game. The press can also take photos for 7 minutes. As hobby photographer your challenge to get a nice photo is sometimes a bit bigger: you have to work around all press people ;-P

Not a lot of woman in the top of the chess world, but they are coming! Today a ladies battle in the challengers group. Eline is a very big Dutch talent, growing fast. (Extra’s)

E played another draw. This morning we had brunch with 9 chess lovers, very nice!
