R4, G2: Judit Polgar won with the black pieces to force play-offs tomorrow with Dominguez. Here is what The Week in Chess said:
Judit Polgar recovered from a loss to Leinier Dominguez Perez in the first game to beat him in 112 moves with black to take the match to a playoff. But this was a fluctuating struggle to say the least.
Polgar will have very decent chances in the rapid where she has major scalps including Topalov last year but the faster the time rates after that will probably favour Dominguez.
There's much more in TWIC's report. I'm pressed for time tonight, darlings. I leave for the airport tomorrow a.m. at 5:30 for St. Louis. GO JUDIT GO. I will follow her play-offs as I can on my brand new little Acer notebook!
One note - notice that she was wearing the "leopard print" trimmed black jacket in today game!
Unfortunately, GM Gata Kamsky for the USA did not fare as well. He lost again and is going home. So, the USA has no more representatives playing in the World Cup.
