The latest (near) super-tournament: Poikovsky
http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1215572810.shtml


   Round 1 took place yesterday (Tuesday), and saw the following results:
   Wang Hao - Inarkiev 1-0
   Jakovenko - Volokitin 1-0
   Sutovsky - Shirov 1/2-1/2
   Rublevsky - Gashimov 1-0
   Bologan - Onischuk 1/2-1/2
   This is a very strong tournament with a lot of exciting players, so we
   can expect some very good games here. In fact, two of the round 1
   games are especially worth your time, Wang-Hao and Sutovsky-Smirin. As
   [1]I've been warned that the tournament site is a dangerous one, and
   TWIC hasn't made the games available in PGN, I'll send you to [2]the
   section of TWIC covering the event, and you can at least replay the
   games there.
