GM Wesley So (2577) held top seed GM Zurab Azmaiparashvili (2615) of Georgia to a draw in the fifth round of the first Dragon Capital Vietnam Open chess championship. So and Azmaiparashvili however remain at the top spots as other leaders of the tournaments, the two Vietnamese players, also halved the point in their fifth-round match.
Two other Filipino bets — IMs Richard Bitoon and Rolando Nolte - - also drew their matches to remain in contention but it was IM Julio Catalino Sadorra, who provided the lone victory for the Filipinos on the fifth round.
Detailed reports to be followed.
