"I often have hours of sleepless nights. What a godsend ICC is then! There is always a companion somewhere in the world to keep me company over a game."

Round seven by Chriss Lass

Wow. Sensation day 2 in dortmund. In today's round seven the unlucky person Vishy Anand was able to claim a win over Bologan. The other games were drawn today - even the game Najditch-Kramnik. Maybe Anand will stop Bologan the tiger !

Replay Anand - Bologan 1-0

Replay Naiditsch - Kramnik 1/2

Replay Leko - Radjabov 1/2

Due to my wife's birthday, I couldn't go to Dortmund today to take pictures for you out there. Sorry. Instead I collected some pictures during the past rounds to introduce the player's family members to you:

Margarita Bologan, Sofia Leko

On the first picture you can see Margarita Bologan (left) and Sofia Leko, who are discussing non-chess topics (I am sure;)


Aruna Anand, not identified, TD Koth

In the press center you can always find Aruna Anand reading a book. To the very right you see tournament director Koth who took the chance to play a game of Blitz against a friend.


Arshak Petrosyan, Sofia Leko, Peter Leko

Arriving in the playing hall: Arshak Petrosyan, Leko's trainer and father-in-law, plus: Sofia and Peter Leko.


Radjabov's parents

Also arriving every day in Dortmund to see the son play: Father and mother Radjabov


Carsten Hensel

Not really a family member - but responsible for the next world championship fight: the manager of Leko and Kramnik: Carsten Hensel
