Gorenje 2007 Update

Our friends over at Chessdom.com are covering the strong 10-man RR Gorenje 2007 (Valjevo) tournament that features Anatoli Karpov, Suat Atalik and Kiril Georgiev.

Round 5 was especially violent with 4 out of 5 games ending decisively. The Rook endgame in Damljanovic - Pavasovic is worth a look. I must really thank the guys at Chessdom for their daily emails that include games and photos. Here's Karpov in action.

Iordachescu - Karpov, 0-1

At the round 5 mark, three players are in the lead on 3.5 points. They are Atalik, Roiz and Karpov.
