Ruslan Chinakhov (RUS) creamed Denis Grabe (EST) with 9:4 and will play tomorrow in the single elimination stage.
For a long time, Chinakhov was not able to score at a Euro-Tour event. Maybe the Dynamic Billiards European Open changes that for him. He started out at a tremendous speed and took a quick 5:0 lead over Grabe. Grabe missed the early phase of the match and never got the chance to get back. Chinakhov's performance was simply too strong for him today.
