25th Cannes Open 2011 (Games and Results)

Mark Crowther - Friday 25th February 2011

Anatoly Vaisser against Viktor Korchnoi

The 25th Cannes Open took place Mon 21st Feb 2011 - Sun 27th Feb 2011. Joseph Sanchez took clear first place with 7/9. in the main section (called Pierre & Vacances). It seemed very odd that the conclusion to this event overlapped with the start of the Cappelle-la-Grande open, usually things are much more coordinated than that. Only a very tiny number of games from the open are available. Anatoly Vaisser took on Viktor Korchnoi in a legends match with two standard time-rate games and then a day with two rapid and 4 blitz games. All three phases were drawn with the players drawing both standard games, swapping victories in the rapid and then exchanging wins at the start of the blitz before two draws.
