Wijk aan Zee results and best games

Wijk aan Zee 2012 was convincingly won by Aronian w 9/13, 2 losses but 7 wins (!), and 2891 performance.
Carlsen defeated him but it was not enough and finished with 8/13 with a 2835 performance.
Good tournament for Radjabov 8/13, only undefeated player.
Very good one for Caruana 8/13 with a 2842 performance and climbing to 10th place in the world!

Strange tournament for the usually solid Karjakin with 5 wins, 5 losses and only 3 draws!
Last seed Van Wely made 10 draws in a row before finally losing 2 games.

Very poor tournament for Gelfand, Topalov, Gashimov, Navara and Giri (5 losses in a row!).

Out of the 91 games played, I selected 10 good or very good (*) games :
Aronian - Nakamura *
Carlsen - Aronian
Nakamura - Navara *
Karjakin - Gelfand
Giri - Gashimov
Carlsen - Karjakin *
Giri - Aronian *
Caruana - Giri *
Carlsen - Topalov
Kamsky - Topalov

Bundesliga

Le championnat allemand, l'un des plus forts au monde, a repris.

Toujours des Français dans les équipes.

Le direct est toujours excellent. Ils ont même ajouté une webcam et un tchat.

Ca se passe ici.
