us, stops us, shifts us ahead, and soon picks us up
one after the other and gathers us in the same box of Nothing." Omar Khayyam 1040 ad |

"Tom" Hales (1775) (See
Game 0773) and now leads with 2-0. In the "B" Section, Slobodan "the Mad Serb" Sinanovic (1774) outplayed Vadims "the Mad Latvian" Mudrovs (1359) to lead with 1-1. In the Lower Section, "Smokin" Corey Frazier (1213) upset Michael "Xan"
Alexander (1504) to lead with 2-0. In
addition, Lee "Roger" Moore (1213) upset  Winfred "Guns" Gatlin (1231). In
order to observe all results see "Current

moves! (1 d4
Nf6 2 Bg5 c6!? 3 e3?? Qa5!-+) in Rd:1, barely fended off the advances
of an aggressive Navaneet Galagali (1051) in Rd:2 (See Game 0771) and agreed to a
Grandmaster Draw in the final round versus Samuel "Xman" Xin (1969) who dispatched of
Charlie "Tenor" Cararros (1437) in Rd:1

took home $60.
