Wang Hao Wins Reykjavik Blitz

One day after the successful finish of the Reykjavik open the Chinese player won the blitz tournament as well. He received 2500 $ for his efforts. Second is the Iranian GM Elshan Moradiabadi. It was a KO system and in case of equality one sudden death game was played. Top eight players received money prizes. The field was very strong, as you may see.
I would like to thank Ingvar Johannesson for the information that he sent me.
