Word has it that he was more concentrated on a certain female player in a
parallel tournament than his direct rivals in the main one, so it is very hard
to judge his state of mind. Krasenkow had a nasty Elo collapse by dropping from
2700 to 2570 and yet there he is a point ahead of the rest in the B tournament.
He should be back to his ~2650 self very soon.
