Great comment from GM Alina L`Ami in Chessbase

GMI Fier game in chessbase

The Brazilian GM Fier never ceases to impress in our eyes with his resourceful play; it is always a pleasure to follow his games although, at times, his strategy might to be a bit too risky. Here he played Kd7! The exclamation mark is given for his courage, ambition and lack of any chess taboos. Alexandr just wants to enjoy the game of chess and this worked wonders against the Dutch IM.

Trouble in Minsk - Belarus

See Nino Maisuradze description of the troubles there. A shame for such an important city.

In Minsk tournament: Arriving in the airport, visa cost for 2 persons, suprising 360€. Orginizers never prevented us about this and recomended us to get visas in the airport. Next step, arriving in the hotel, receptionist saying: you aren't on the list. Arriving to organizer for feeding money "you aren't on the list". Arriving about plane ticket money, organizer: "you aren't on the list". After 5 days of waiting a stupid organizer saying: oh you look upset. YESSS, I'm UPSET!!! I was waiting organizer to say: oh you aren't on the list, but it's ok, we are going to correct this mistake, but instead she said: come tomorrow and we we'll discuss about. Came on next day, she said, oh come after 2 days, went after 2 days, she said, oh come before the round. Came today before the round, she didn't come, appeared on last minutes and said come after the round. I came after the round, and when I heard the words "tomorrow (!!!!) to discuss" I got mad !!!!!! The idiot organizer to me: oh, you look emotional! YESSSS, I'M EMOTIONALLLL! Then I said that their organisation was bad.. and guess.. she got mad at me :DDDDDDD
