Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
I hope Adams will win.
I’m guessing when Dan Friedman beat Anna Zatonskih in round 2, thet Friedman slept on the couch that night. Susan, what do you think of a husband playing for a win against his wife in an early round of a Swiss event?
Dan can proudly say he beats his wife often.
