Was Jan Smeets playing?

Sort:
No he wasn't. Giri played Ernst, Nijboer, Reinderman, Swinkels, Cuijpers and Miedema. Taviakov abandonned the tourney after round 3
A new star is born....Anish Giri, 15 years of age has just won the Dutch Chess Championship!!
Quite an achievement! He blew the astablishment right from the board. Congratulations!
Zhaoqin Peng is the new Ladies Champion, for the 11th time (not in a row I believe?)
