[Title] => Losses drop Villamayor, Mariano, Nadera to joint 15th in Dubai chess
[Summary] => DUBAI — Grandmaster Bong Villamayor and international masters Nelson Mariano II and Barlo Nadera failed to sustain their impressive showing in the early going and took numbing losses in the fifth round of the Dubai Open Chess Championship and reeled down the leaderboard halfway through the $40,000 event here Friday.
Villamayor dragged fellow GM Mikhail Ulibin into a four-hour battle of wits in their French defense game but eventually succumbed to the Russian ace and resigned after 49 moves.

[Title] => Tough draw for RP vs England
[Summary] => BLED, Slovenia — After salvaging three draws against the United States Sunday, the Philippines braces for another deep impact collision with sixth-ranked England in the third round of the 35th World Chess Olympiad here Monday.
Grandmaster Bong Villamayor, the lone Filipino casualty in the second round, takes a breather, his place taken over by International Master Mark Paragua.
IM Petronio Roca, who has yet to see action, will play board four against a team bannered by super GMs Michael Adams and Nigel Short.

[Title] => Young Paragua regains lead; Torre joint second
[Summary] => Mark Paragua dealt fellow International Master Chito Garma a stunning defeat yesterday to regain the solo lead going into the last four rounds of the National Chess Championship at the 17th floor (Penthouse) of the All Asia Center in Makati.
The 18-year-old GM candidate who admits to have a winning record over Garma in the last few years again essayed the classical lines of the Alekhine to earn his eighth point and move closer to the title and the P150,000 cash prize that goes with it.
Paragua‘s next opponent is no less than Grandmaster Bong Villamayor.

[Title] => Villamayor drops to 3rd behind Viets
[Summary] => Grandmaster Bong Villamayor’s bid for another stint in the World Championship suffered a severe blow yesterday when he failed to score the much-needed win and settled for a draw with Vietnamese GM Dao Thien Hai in the penultimate round of the Asian Zonals at the Grand Boulevard Hotel.
But the standoff was the best Villamayor could muster in a game where he went into time trouble and was a pawn down in a bishop-pawn endgame of a Slav as the bespectacled Filipino bet forced Dao, whom he tied for first in last year’s Zonal, to accept the draw after 76 moves.
