26th Leon Masters 2013
Mark Crowther - Friday 7th June 2013
The 26th Leon Masters took place 7th to 9th June 2013. Vassily Ivanchuk played Anish Giri over 16 games. Friday 2 games at 45m+15spm. Saturday 4 games at 20m+10spm and Sun 10 games at 5m+3spm. Giri won 1.5-0.5 on day 1, 3.5-0.5 on day two but was hammered 7.5-2.5 by Ivanchuk in the blitz. Am slightly unclear of the scoring but the first two match victories meant Giri won the event in spite of finally scoring less points. Giri pointed out that he really did have to do something about his poor blitz record. He said he played the games inflexibly like a "bull" with one fixed idea which worked on the first two days but not at all on the last. All games and results available below.
