Karnataka boys create havoc in National Subjunior!
Karnataka boys created major upsets in
the second round of the National Subjunior
Chess Championship being played at
Mount Chess Academy, Chennai.
First it was Belgaum boy Niranjan Navalgund (ELO 2012)
who upset the topseeded International Master
S.P. Sethuraman (ELO 2427) in a London System.
Sethuraman grabbed the 'h' pawn onthe 17th move and
this seemed to open up the game completely for a vicious
attack by the Belgaum lad. Niranjan made light of the 415
point ELO difference and crushed his opponent in 56 moves.
On the third board, it was Antonio Viani D' Cunha (ELO 1988)
who shocked the 4th seeded National Under 17 Champion
M.R. Lalith Babu of Andhra Pradesh. Lalith Babu, who made an
International Master norm in Kolkatta earlier this year had no
answer for the controlled aggression of the Mangalore lad in
an English Opening game and finally threw in the towel on the
62nd move.
Meanwhile, Karnataka team got another boost when FIDE Master and World Under 10 Champion Girish Kaushik (ELO 2086) of Mysore beat G. Jaswant (ELO 1872) of Tamil Nadu to set up a clash with Atishay Ajmera (ELO 1903) in the third round.
In other results, Maharashtra's IM Norm holder Aditya Udeshi
(ELO 2355) had no problem in disposing off Kaushalendra
Kumar (ELO 1993) and FIDE Master S. Nitin (ELO 2321) beat Sayantan
Das (ELO 1982) of West Bengal to notch their second consecutive points.
Nine more rounds remain in this prestigious tournament and
the top 5 players will represent India in the Under 16 Olympiad
to be played in Ankara, Turkey in August next year.
