Aeroflot open 2012, 3nd round.

...And one time was not enough, so i went to the hotel Cosmos again, to take more pictures. Here you can see the pictures from the 3nd round and not only from the playing hall :)


GM Fabiano Caruana made a draw and now is one of the eight leaders of the tournament

So did GM Abhijeet Gupta :)


GM Ildar Khairullin (Russia), GM Adhiban Baskaran (India) and GM Rauf Mamedov (Azerbaijan)


GM Harika Dronavalli (India)

IM Yilmaz Mustafa (Turkey) - GM Yu Yangyj (China)


GM Nisipeanu, Liviu-Dieter (Romania) - GM Krishnan Sasikiran (India)


GM Aleksey Aleksandrov (Belarus)

B group:

IM Evgenia Ovod - FM Sergey Grishchenko

WGM Padmini Rout

IM Nisha Mohota finished her game early...


...and so did GM Tejas Bakre. I admire these two people. Although it was about minus 20 degrees Celsius, they were brave enough to go outside the hotel, and to walk around with me for at least 30 minutes.

See how brave they are!


Nisha in front of the VDNKH or All-Russia Exhibition Centre.


Tejas and the snow!


Please, take my picture quickly, it is terribly cold to sit here and posing!


Pakka? :)

It was getting colder and colder, darker and darker. So we went back to the hotel to take some coffee. In the hotel we met Sandipan.


It took a very long time for the restaurant to serve us coffee. Sandipan already left, but we were still waiting. Finally we got what we ordered.
I had a great day. Hope nobody gets ill as a result of our walk in Russian winter! :)
