Round 1: Grischuk and Kamsky win with Black |
Monday, 21 April 2008 |
Today a brand new tournament series started in a most unusal manner. In the first round of Baku 2008, the first of six tournaments in the FIDE Grand Prix Series, there were two decisive games and in both it was Black who won.

Svidler first chose the King's Indian instead of his regular Gruenfeld, Mamedyarov then went for the Four Pawns Attack, then the Russian answered with the ancient move 6...e5 and then Mamedyarov didn't opt for the continuation suggested by theory, but instead chose to keep his extra pawn, which gave Black very active play, just enough to give perpetual in the end.
