After round nine of Asian Continental Chess Championship, my interest in the tournament surged as my hopes for GM's Antonio and So shoot up for a possible top finish. But the sad news is...
GM Rogelio "Joey" Antonio losses his game in round ten of the Asian Continental Chess Championship against GM Ganguly Surya Shekhar while GM Wesley So drew his match agianst GM Hou Yifan in what was termed by Rusticbull of Malibay Chess Club blog as Prodigy vs Prodigy.
Asia's chess legend and first ever, GM Eugene Torre won in round 10 and is in a must win round seven if he wants to be in the running for the 10 qualified players. GM's So and Antonio will also need to win in the final round to be in the "tiebreaks" hopefuls.
It would be very refreshing to see those three Pinoy chess giants to qualify for the 2009 FIDE World Cup.
The results for Asian Continental Chess Championship: Round 10 Open and Women's.
Must win! Must win!
