                    [Summary] => BLED — The Philippines crushed Iraq, 3-1, Monday as a gift to grandmaster Eugene Torre who turned 51 here at the 35th World Chess Olympiad.


The Filipinos showed little respect to the Iraqis, whose two key players were stopped by grandmaster Bong Villanueva and IM Nelson Mariano II.

Villamayor defeated Ali Gattea, a Fide master, in 39 moves of a Queen’s Gambit, Tarrasch variation. Mark Paragua drew against International Master Sarsam Saaed in 75 moves of a Sicilian Defense.
