At least 10 places for the World Cup, so more than just the medals in play

I know this is not intended primarily as a holiday, but I am still always pleased to see these events being held in nice places. Let's hope the hotel lives up to its billing.

Good game, you would say the players looked evenly matched.

Re: European Women's Individual
I've watched a number of Bodhana's games and this is the best yet. She played the opening really well and while I suppose White should have noticed 23...Nf6, which is simple enough once you see it, after that she was quite relentless.

Re: European Women's Individual
According to chess results Bodhana has so far gained 47.6 rating points.
That will take her over 2100 and thus give her the WFM title, which she narrowly missed at Reykjavik and the Menchik Memorial. She will be the youngest WFM in the world.
