Aeroflot Update
Sunday, February 13, 2011 at 1:51AM A quick look in after five rounds of the Aeroflot Open: Le Quang Liem continues to enjoy solo first place and is in good shape to repeat and make a second trip to Dortmund this July. He defeated Gata Kamsky pretty quickly in round 4, and then enjoyed the better half of the draw in round 5 with the black pieces against Evgeny Tomashevsky. That gave him 4.5/5, and in round 6 he'll have White against Rustam Kasimdzhanov. Kasimdzhanov, along with Tomashevsky, Mikhail Kobalia, and Jianchao Zhou, trails with four points in this nine-round tournament.
