Latest (21:46): all games available now. Top board is a victory for Smbat Lputian, who now leads on his own. It seems like weeks ago that he lost his round one game, and now he's bounced back to 6½/8. The meeting of the former winners Hebden and Epishin ends in a startling victory for the home favourite, Super Hebbo! "Alexander Nevsky! Mikhail Gorbachev! Catherine the Great! Marshal Zhukov! Leo Tolstoy! Petr Tchaikovsky! We gave your boys a helluva of a beating!" (excuse that nationalistic outburst, I haven't gone completely mad, it's just a private joke with some Norwegian guys I was talking to in the bar last night - it's a football thing). There's a third former winner in the room - Alexander Baburin, who is reporting on the tournament for 'Chess Today'.
