53rd Reggio Emilia 2010 (Games and Results)

53rd Reggio Emilia 2010-11

The 53rd "Torneo di Capodanno", took place December 28th 2010 - January 6th 2011. Vugar Gashimov edged out Francisco Vallejo Pons for first place.

Gashimov wins Reggio on tie-break from Vallejo (9)

Two quick draws in the final round involving the leaders settled the fate of the Reggio Emilia tournament. Both Vugar Gashimov and Francisco Vallejo Pons had the black pieces and equalised easily enough. They both scored 6/9 but the Sonneborn-Berger tie-break favoured Gashimov mostly by virtue of his victory over Vallejo. Movsesian, Navara and Ivanchuk scored 5/9. The returning Alexander Morozevich was defeated by Ivanchuk for a final score of 4/9. Nigel Short lost to Navara and finished on 3.5/9.
