Zürich Chess Challenge 2015

Choose who you think will finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

The opening day includes 5 rounds of blitz to decide the draw.
The main tournament consists of 5 rounds of classical chess and finally 5 rounds of rapid chess on the closure day.

The combined final score for the tournament is calculated by scoring each game in the classical competition on a 2–1–0 basis and each game in the rapid competition on a 1–½–0 basis. So CLASSICAL + RAPID.

Here is the list of all 6 players:

Bonus are 3 players that will win each section undependently to other sections. You can choose the same or other player for each section. Name the section of the winner you chose (otherwise it will count as blitz-classical-rapid).

You have time for predictions until Feb 13, 2015 - 17:00 GMT.

So Gibraltar is over, right?  Hikaru won :)  but the second and third places surprised me.

Did anyone pick Dennis Wagner as the bonus?  At least Tamir, my choice, came second.

It's over? Huh, I'll have to speed up. I'm so so happy for Hou. Laughing Results will be available at least at midnight CET. :)

Looking at the official website, it also seems there were other groups (challengers A and B, amateur, etc)
