Kevin Gentes dropped out of Group A giving the rest of the field two rest days. Sam Lipnowski and Tony Boron have 1.5 points after two rounds in that group. Joseph Van Wyk also has 1.5 points to lead the Group B. Daniel Wiebe and Weixi Liu lead the Group C with the same magic number - point and a half. The leader of Group D, Aaron Green, is the only GP player with a perfect score.
Of course in the swiss tournament the picture is completely different. Five players have the perfect score in Mike Shpan Memorial. They are Waldemar Schulz, Les Mundwiler, Dezheng Kong, Harley Greenberg, and Simon Fromme. One more surprise of the tournament is Myron Kernetsky's playing again after 17 years of break. Way to go Myron, hope our other semiretired players will follow your example.
Games and crosstables will be updated tonight, meanwhile check the round results:
