Europeen Championship

After round 6 Jobava and Efimenko lead with 5,5/6(they drew between them in round 5) followed by 5 players with 5/6
A lot can still happens...

Of course to win such a tournament you need to be very strond and to be lucky in that way Jobava was not unhappy in round 4:


Krasenkow,Michal - Jobava,Baadur [B38]
11th European Individual Men Chess Cham Rijeka/Croatia (4), 09.03.2010

1.Nf3 c5 2.c4 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.e4 Bg7 6.Be3 Nf6 7.Nc3 0-0 8.Be2 b6 9.0-0 Bb7 10.f3 Qb8 11.Qd2 Rd8 12.Rad1 e6 13.f4 Ne7 14.Bf3 Ne8 15.Qf2 Qc8 16.Qh4 Bf6 17.Qh3 Bg7 18.Rc1 f5 19.g4 Nd6 20.gxf5 Nxc4 21.Ncb5 exf5 22.Be2 d5 23.exd5 Bxd5 24.b3 a6 25.Bxc4 Qb7 26.Nc7 Bxc4 27.Rxc4 b5 28.Rcc1 Rxd4 29.Nxa8 Qxa8 30.Rc7 Re4 31.Rd1 Nd5 32.Rd7 Rxe3 33.Qg2 Bd4 34.Rxd4 Re1+ 35.Qf1 Ne3 0-1
if you wonder where is the luck I can add that 33.Qg2 is a blunder from white in a very good position  and that with 33.Qh4 he had winning chance.
Quoting Lasker from memory:"the good player is always lucky"
