GR STOCKS-UNSPLASH
GM Mark Paragua, who saved the day in the Filipinos’ shock 2.5-1.5 upset of Sweden in round five, tried again to squeeze out a win out of what looked like an equal position against GM Avital Burochovsky on board one but wound up splitting the point in 59 moves of their Four Knights showdown that sealed the standoff with the Israelis.
The draw kept the Filipinos, who are backed by the Philippine Sports Commission, in striking distance with the big guns as they share 14place with 10 other nations with nine match points in this 11-round, 12-day event that gives two points for a match victory and a point for tie. GM John Paul Gomez will be re-inserted into the roster in place of a still dazed Mr. Bersamina in anticipation of their much-awaited collision with the powerful Poles.
