2007 Politiken Cup ended with five players tied on the first place. Sargissian - Malakhov and Nybäck - Krasenkow were fighting draws, which allowed Nick de Firmian and Emanuel Berg to climb on the top by beating Peter Heine Nielsen and Lars Schandorff respectively. Michal Krasenkow takes the trophy on the better tiebreak. This year's Politiken Cup broke all the records in numbers of participants and organizers are eager to make it even better in 2008.
