Our commentator allocated two effective fragments from 1st round games within the frameworks of a stage of the Cup of Russia. Defeat of the grandmaster from Neftekamsk Denis Khismatullin became the main sensation of round. His rival, the young chess player from Ulan-Ude Zhamsaran Tsydypov, having been completely outplayed, skillfully complicated the fight.
In the second fragment effective combinational break was carried out by the Indian grandmaster Gupta Abhijeet in a meeting with Russian Makhmutov Ravil.
