After 94 moves of fighting chess, the game between Dinara Wagner and Elisabeth Pähtz ends in a draw. Wagner in particular misses a great opportunity.

Second last year, always in the leading group in 2024 and the new tournament winner with 6.5 points from 7 games: Oleskandr Kasapchuk!

King's Gambit, back rank mates, missed chances and a surprising leader. What a seventh round in the A-Open of the 51st International Dortmund Chess Days!

Oleksandr Kasapchuk emerged victorious from a wild tactical battle in the opening against Bernhard Zoremba to defend his lead in the B-Open with one round to go.
