Go Alex!

[John Acker]

Alex may well have a comparatively easy schedule for the next few rounds. I expect we will see Moiseyev vs. Kondlo and Moiseyev vs. Bernini in R6 and R7, but I am not sure in what order. The tournament rules do not specifically mention re-pairing in the final round, but if there are no re-pairs then Alex will likely end up with a weaker opponent in R8.

Alex may well have a comparatively easy schedule for the next few rounds. I expect we will see Moiseyev vs. Kondlo and Moiseyev vs. Bernini in R6 and R7, but I am not sure in what order.

If that is an easy schedule, I would hate to see a hard schedule!
