I opened 2013 participating strong Christmas Rapid Tournament “Karpos” in Skopje, Macedonia. I played very well and without losing finaly shared the 2nd place. I played many interested games including a victory against strong Macedonian grandmaster Trajko Nedev and a easy draw against Bulgarian legendary player Kiril Georgiev. Scoring 7 points from 9 rounds was insufficient for taking first place. You can see results and standings on link below:
