Solid win for Hari with black pieces today... to retain his #10 spot and jumps up to 2769.8, half ELO off of his best ever, 1.2 ELO clear of #11 Shak... and 2.2 ELO away from #9 Karjakin... :clap:

Solid draw for Hari against Shak today, couldn't do much with the white pieces....
loses 0.1 ELO, stays at #10, 1 ELO ahead of Shak...

Let's see if Carlsen will help Hari up to #9 on the list, later today.... :D

Carlsen actually helped Karjakin to gain more points as every draw between them in the world championship match gives 1.1 points to Karjakin.
Meanwhile Giri with a victory in the last round (Round 7) of European Club Cup and ousted Hari from top 10. Hari did not play Round 7. Hari will have to wait for another tournament to make a move.

Bundesliga 2016-17

Hari was representing Solingen

After the glory of hitting his best ELO and being back at #10, Hari blundered away a Q+R end game the next day and came down to #13 at 2665.5...
Shak also lost (to Grischuk) his game later in the day helping Hari up to #12... more than 5 ELO behind #10 Giri...

The long trek continues...... :goodluck:

Hari continues to struggle this year, and lost to Svidler with white today.

He is fallen to #24 in the live rankings with an ELO rating of 2734.
