On the free day between the two halves of the match the organisers had a little outing planned for the participants: nature, swimming, shashlik, football.
The lakeside picnic spot – certainly not overrun by tourists
The Chinese teams occupy their position
Translator Oleg Zilbert with Chinese WGM Shen Yang, rated 2439
GM Vladimir Belov, Elena Tairova's coach, takes to the water
So does Zhang Pengxiang, 2649, the most enterprising GM on the Chinese side
GM Evgeny Alekseev protecting his 2689 rated brain
Chinese GM Ni Hua, rated 2681
Provisions for the day: melons, cantaloupe, bread, water, liquid yogurt
Guerrilla Mercenary (GM) Ernesto Inarkiev, 2663, leads the attack
The carnage is terrible, the enemy doesn't stand a chance
The other GMs (Guerrilla Mercenaries, remember?) join the fray
GM Yuri Dokhoyan, trainer of the Russian women's team, has taken a captive
The battle is over – so what do we do now?
Card tricks, that's what (three-card monte on a towel during a lakeside picnic?)
