Re: Riga Open 2015
Alan live
Isaac live
EDIT - chess 24 live is also showing the games from the lower boards, but I thought they were only broadcasting 20 live boards, anyway if they do there would also be:
Adam live
Edmund live
3 pm today I think

Re: Riga Open 2015
Only 15 live boards today, so can't see Alan or Isaac let alone the other 2

Re: Riga Open 2015
Adam & Edmund won, but Alan & Isaac lost - Isaac seems to have been a bit unlucky getting black against the 2 GMs he has faced
Chigaev who beat Alan yesterday, is now on 4/4

Re: Riga Open 2015
It is unclear to me how Troff lost yesterday. As often happens nowadays, we can only assume that he lost on time, with a 30 second increment, in a position where simple moves were available.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a QR code stamped on a human face — forever.

Re: Riga Open 2015
Three Irish players also playing, and IM Sam Collins won in this round to reach the same score as Alan Merry - 4.5/7. Excellent result there from Alan, drawing with a young and (relatively?) strong GM from the USA. Let's hope the last two rounds see good results.
Further up, Alan's nemesis, Chigaev, lost in round 6 to the joint-top seed Alexei Shirov (Latvia). At the moment, the leaders on 6/7 are Shirov and Hovhannisyan (Armenia) and Baron (Israel).
