He played great. Achieved his GM norm in the first half of the tournament already.

Too bad that he let the last game draw. He played that well too and could have won probably. He must have been impressed by the whole thing.

Stop dreaming ;-) He is scandinavian, I believe Swedisch (could be norvegian too).
