Didn't White resign a little early ?

No, Barry. Qun Ma to the bar early.

Since we are talking about Groningen, why are the Dutch pushing Anne Haast so much. Doesn't she always get a place in Tata C tournament every year as well. But with 0.5-3.5 against Elizabeth Pahetz this year - ah well.

It appears to be original as well. 9. c5 gives away a pawn in exchange for the dark square Bishop, but White might almost have enough to be equal. Least worst anyway. 8 Nb3 appears a novelty, with 8. e3 the most popular move.LawrenceCooper wrote:A ten move defeat with white for a 2621 rated GM Qun Ma v Danny Raznikov Groningen Open A round 6

He will end up, at best, two pawns down with his king still stuck in the middle. So it is understandable that he resigned in disgust.Barry Sandercock wrote:Didn't White resign a little early ?
