Round 3 began with great promise with WCN's own Site Pro IM Pascal
Charbonneau facing off against Canada's legendary GM Kevin Spraggett.  On
Board 2, GM Alexandre Lesiege fought a very energetic and determined
Canadian Junior Champion, Stephen Glinert, before finally taking home the
full point.

Charbonneau, Pascal IM (2428)  --   Spraggett, Kevin GM (2660)
With Kevin holding a half-point lead thanks to Lesiege's Round 2 draw, the
window of opportunity opened wide for Spraggett to hold top spot or return
it in favour of a quick hand shake.  For the hundreds of fans watching at
WorldChessNetwork.com, unfortunately the latter prevailed.  The game began
in promising fashion, with Charbonneau introducing an Open Sicilian.  More
than 20 moves of theoretical madness ensued... but Spraggett was in no way
out of his element.  In fact, up until Charbonneau's Bb1, Kevin had seen the
exact same position in front of him in Istanbul 2000.  Thus, the game was
agreed a draw before further blood was shed.

Here is the game:

Charbonneau - Spraggett

Nxd5 21.
Rxd5 Qc7 1/2-1/2


LeSiege, Alexandre GM (2660)  --  Glinert, Stephen (2391)
Canadian Junior Champion Stephen Glinert looked confident and poised as he
sat down behind the Black pieces to take on the remarkably sturdy Alexandre
Lesiege.  Even WorldChessNetwork.com commentators, GM Dima Tyomkin and IM
Mark Diesen, gave Glinert little chance especially given Lesiege's dominance
with the White pieces.  But Stephen's underdog status proved overrated..and
the two young stars quickly entered a complicated ending.  Most observers
considered Stephen's Bb3 the key mistake, as Alexandre produced a fine
demonstration of, as Nimzovitsch once exclaimed, a passed Pawn's "lust to
expand".  In the end, Glinert's attempted Bishop and three Pawn fortress was
no match for Lesiege's torturous Queen.  A good effort by Glinert... but
more than effort is required to slay a monster.

Here is the game:

LeSiege - Glinert
