Comments:
The action continues!

For the games, again, please download them and take a look at them all.

The Dynamic version of Rybka 3 playing here crushed Naum in 28 moves, a crazy game worth checking out.

Gaviota also scored a first win, against AnMon. A nice game!

So far Naum, Critter, Chess Tiger, Alaric, Chessmaster 10, Deep Pharaon
and Daydreamer are the only engines that haven't collected any points.

Let's see if that can change for the upcoming wild 3rd round!

As you can see from the Standings below, the Violet Team is in the lead.
