Shake up amongst the leaders.

The sensation of the day was St.Petersburg losing to the Ural team despite out-rating them on all six boards.
In the clash between the closely matched '64' and Economist teams it was the famous Russian magazine that came out on top and has, in consequence, taken the overall lead.

Both ShSM-64 and Economist have leading Chinese players in their ranks and their games swayed the match result. Wang Hao won for 64 (against Tomashevsky) whereas Ni Hua lost for Economist-SGSEU-1 against Riazantsev. The other Chinese player involved, Wang Yue on top board for Saratov, had Black against Gelfand and drew a long game. Karjakin was the third winner for 64 against Eljanov.

The Ural team downed the leaders St.Petersburg by making five draws and one win on board five - Ponkratov (2593) beating Zvjaginsev (2643).

Pavel Eljanov: Four wins and a loss before today's loss to Karjakin.@Wikipedia

Women's team championship

The final round involved three close matches:

Dvorets	1.5-2.5	Economist-SGSEU
ShSM	1.5-2.5	Chigorin
Giprorechtrans	1.5-2.5	SPb Chess Fed

The victory on top board for Cmilyte over Zhukova won the match and (indeed as it turns out) the title for St.Petersburg.

A happier ending for Viktorija Cmilyte than the last round of the European Women's Championship!

Ranking	Team	Seeding	Match points	Board points	Top board
1	SPb Chess Fed	2	9	15	Viktorija Cmilyte 2485
2	Giprorechtrans	5	8	13	Natalia Zhukova 2492
3	AVS	1	7	14.5	Antoaneta Stefanova 2555
4	ShSM	3	6	13	Alexandra Kosteniuk 2524
5	Economist-SGSEU	4	6	11.5	Zhao Xue 2490
6	Dvorets	7	3	9	Marina Romanko 2409
7	Chigorin Chess Club	6	3	8	Tatjana Molchanova 2369

So a day of mixed fortunes for St.Petersburg: Losing a key match and the lead in the Premier league, but on the other hand stealing the Women's title.
