Lucky Tiviakov, strong Sebag
A dramatical finish, the end of the 7th round of the Hogeschool Zeeland Tournament last night. The last game going on was board one, where the spectators had gathered standing on the dotted line that was put on the floor by the organizers a few days ago, to watch the apotheosis of the game Tiviakov-Caruana. At first the Dutch national champion seemed to be winning easily but then he totally screwed up. Till ... Caruana resigned in a drawn position! After she beat Kasimdzhanov, the Fran?ɬßaise Marie Sebag now also scalped Krasenkow, and can try her luck against Tivi tonight.Sergei Tiviakov cannot complain.
