The atmosphere is nice and people playing there very friendly. Giving for granted that Diep and C.Tiger have the best options to be in first and second place (not necesarily in the mentioned order!), the fight for the third -and first Spanish- place is very exciting, with equality among Rui Lopez, Eugen and Caligula with three points after five rounds. You will be able to follow the games in the cool Sergio's web, as usual. Some comments about them: - The easy victory of Diep over Genesis. - The brilliant win of Eugen against Calligula. - The imposibility of Ruy Lopez to survive against the strength of Chess Tiger... in a game that was very near of a draw by repetition in the middlegame. - The fist win of Betsabe against Averno. By the way probably Mr. Benitez, the Betsabé programmer, deserve the 'Fair Play' award. After a mistake of the Averno operator introducing one move, he has accepted to totally reproduce the game (Averno works in Winboard and it has not been possible to take back the move) and continue playing it. 'Chapeau!!'. Tomorrow rounds 6 and 7 will be very exciting in the fight for the lead between C.Tiger and Diep, for the Spanish leadership, and even for the sprint to avoid the last place!. I'll try to be there... Tomas.
