In the men's tournament there were no real fights and sensations, as all the rating leaders won their matches.

Meanwhile, the match between AVS and SHSM-RGSU was a thriller. At first Valentina Gunina obtained an active position against Viktoria Cmilyte and converted her advantage with a few powerful tactical shots, 1-0. On the other boards the situation looked grim for AVS as well since Antoaneta Stefanova got a somewhat suspicious position with White out of the opening against Alexandra Kosteniuk, Natalia Pogonina seemed to be playing for her opponent's time and also didn't get much of an advantage vs Olga Girya; Maria Muzychuk was struggling against Alina Kashlinskaya's two powerful bishops. Then in time trouble the whole picture has changed: in complications Stefanova won a pawn and obtained a dominant position, Pogonina got a totally winning rook endgame, and Muzychuk snatched a central pawn and also had winning chances. Now the question was whether AVS will win or just draw. Unfortunately, Natalia has spent quite a lot of time and then made a few nearly only moves to draw the game instead of winning, Muzychuk didn't find a way to pose problems before her opponent, and Stefanova went all-in and got a hopeless position which Kosteniuk failed to convert. One loss and three draws for AVS, and at the end of the day SHSM-RGSU is the winner...
