Chess Olympiad 2010 Results for Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand and Ireland.

Impressive draw by IM Sam E. Collins in the first round for Ireland against a 2700+ GM. Unlucky getting Russia1 in round 1 although perhaps Ireland are glad to have played that game first. Australia had Armenia in round 2 a very strong side. America doesn't seem to have been tested yet. Canada had a strong side to play in round 2. Well done to IM Thomas Roussel-Roozmon beating a GM rated 2609. Not a very fair first round for New Zealand they had no chance against Cuba. A close game for New Zealand in round 3 against Ireland that might have gone either way if you judged the game by player ratings. Well done New Zealand.
