In the A grade defending 2007 champions Russell Dive and Brian Nijman are both on 100% (2/2 and 1/1 respectively). Brian was fortunate that his opponent Ross Jackson self destructed in a reasonably promising position. Daniel Baider seemed to be doing ok in Baider v Dive, but Russell had it all worked out, trapping White's Knight on the 7th rank in a R+N vs R+B ending.
Anthony Ker is the last player in the A grade on zero, but that is because his opponents have not shown up!
In the B grade there is a neat split, with half the field on 2/2, and the other half on 0/2.
New boy Blaise Drinkwater leads the C grade on 2/2, 1 point ahead of the field - congratulations to you Blaise.
Thanks to Andrew Brockway for the opening suggestion on my round 1 disaster (see below). Nice to see I could have lost much quicker! If anyone else has any comments or content they would like to submit, please feel free to do so.
