"Our teams started out well in the Olympiad and we hope that it will
go on like that until the last tournament," told "A1+" well-known
chess player, grosmeister Smbat Lputyan.
Current vice-president of the Armenian Chess Federation Smbat Lputyan
played in the 2006 Olympiad and this time he is simply following-up
on the games from Yerevan.
Starting tomorrow, Lputyan and international expert Norair Kalantaryan
are getting ready to observe the games of the Armenian teams live
every half an hour starting from 7 p.m. Chess fans can follow-up at
www.chessfed.am," noted Smbat Lputyan.
Armenia's men's chess team will face-off with Azerbaijan during
tomorrow's game.
"It's going to be a rough game," said Smbat Lputyan in closing.
Armenia is at 2nd with 9 points and falls back from Russia, which
has extra points. Germany, Azerbaijan, Ukraine and England all have
9 points each. The Armenian women's chess team will compete against
Ukraine in the 6th tournament. In the 5th tournament, Armenia won
France 2.5:1.5, although the organizers noted that the Armenian women
chess players lost 1.5:2:5. This information was spread to a number
of mass media outlets, but in reality, Armenia won and is at 7th
