Dortmund Sparkassen Chess Meeting 2013 (2)
Wang Hao and Adams win in Dortmund Round 2
Mark Crowther - Saturday 27th July 2013
Wang Hao defeated Daniel Fridman on the white side of a Petroff Defence. Wang broke through on the run up to first time control and 37.Kb7 proved to be a fatal mistake.
Michael Adams won a pawn on the white side of a Berlin Defence and then converted it after a lengthy grind against Dmitry Andreikin who rather surprisingly has started with 0/2.
Georg Meier was very solid in drawing with black in the Queen's Gambit against Igor Khenkin and indeed may have had the better of it at one point.
Leko-Caruana and Naiditsch-Kramnik were both Ruy Lopez's where black equalised quite quickly and draws followed.
Round 2 Standings: Kramnik, Meier, Caruana, Adams 1.5/2pts, Khenkin, Leko, Wang Hao 1pt, Fridman, Naiditsch 0.5pts, Andreikin 0pts.
Round 3 pairings: Meier-Leko, Fridman-Naiditsch, Andreikin-Wang, Caruana-Adams, Kramnik-Khenkin.
