		With 3.5 points in his kitty after the first five rounds of the category-15 double round robin event between six players, Harikrishna said his focus was to play better and think about the results later.
		After a first round victory over Acs in the tournament with fl pieces, Harikrishna's biggest triumph here came when he toppled defending champion Zoltan Almasi with ease in the third round and two subsequent draws now see the Indian atop the tables with just five rounds to come after the rest day on Wednesday.
		In the second half of the tournament Harikrishna will play return games with all other competitors but the thing favouring him is the fact that he will have three white games apart from two as fl.

	P. Harikrishna Profile - Indian Chess Player P. Harikrishna Biography - Information on P. Harikrishna

		Harikrishna shot into national prominence in 1996, when he became the first Indian to win the under-10 world chess championship in Menorca, Spain.

	The Hindu : Sport / Chess : Harikrishna shares title with Gelfand
		The victory for Harikrishna, close on the heels of his triumph in the World juniors late last year, gave him as many as 14 ELO points from the tournament and the Indian will edge up to 2646 now, just four shy of the coveted 2650 mark — an important milestone for Grandmasters.
		In an exciting clash against Macieja in the final board, Harikrishna, who had defeated the player earlier in the tournament, played uncompromising chess from the beginning with fl against the Guico Piano and was suitably rewarded for his effort as his rival went astray under time pressure.
		It was not only the clock that troubled Macieja thereafter as Harikrishna launched a powerful attack all over the board and the Pole found some temporary solace in sacrificing two pieces for a rook.

	Harikrishna maintains lead
		Top seed Grandmaster P Harikrishna maintained sole lead in the third Marx Gyorgy Memorial International chess tournament with an easy draw against Hungarian GM Ferenc Berkes in the fourth round in Paks, Hungary.
		On a day when two games provided results, Harikrishna's match was the only one that ended in a draw and even though defending champion Zoltan Almasi of Hungary came back to winning ways along with Ukraine's Zahar Efimenko, the Indian remained atop the tables with 3 points after four games.
		With six rounds to come in the category-15 double round robin event, both Efimenko and Almasi trail Harikrishna on 2.5 points, while Wang Yue of China, who was comprehensively beaten by Almasi in the fourth round, and Berkes are joint fourth with two points apiece.

		Harikrishna (15) and Koneru Humpy (14) have more in common than that Greek connection, their mother tongue Telugu, and the same first letter in their names.
		When Harikrishna did that in 1996, in Menorca, Spain, it was the first World title for an Indian after Anand's World junior triumph in 1987.
		Harikrishna has more of an allround game, but the competition is also that much stronger in men's chess.

	Harikrishna stretches lead
		Former world junior champion P Harikrishna took a decisive step towards his quest to lift the third Marx Gyorgy International Chess title after scoring a fine victory over defending champion Zoltan Almasi of Hungary in the eighth round in Paks, Hungary.
		Harikrishna has now 5.5 points and is followed by Efimenko on 4.5 while Almasi and Wang Yue are now joint third with 4 points each in their kitty.
		The Hungarian sacrificed a rook for knight soon after the trade of queens in the early stages of the middle game and apparently had enough compensation in the form of his better control in the center.

		Mainz (Germany), Aug 16: Former World Junior champion P Harikrishna stumbled at the first hurdle itself against Grandmaster Arkadij Naiditsch of Germany in the Cleric Medical Chess960 Junior championship being played as a part of the Mainz Chess Classic tournament.
		Chess 960, in which the position of the pieces is randomly changed before the start of the game, certainly did not suit Harikrishna as he might have liked even as the Indian could draw some solace from the fact that he had better positions in two of the four games played on the opening day.
		However as it turned out, Harikrishna ended on the losing side in the first two games itself giving his opponent vital lead in the 8-games match and a draw in the third was followed by another loss for the Indian to round up the day.
