Nice tournament Alex. Congratulations for another successful tournament - The Hart House Team. And thank you for posting the results after 2 rounds and some games.

I would like to request Ian Mahoney to publish the game between Plotkin and Michael Song.

Ian Mahoney, volunteering at the tournament this weekend, posted some games from the top boards. Check them out at www.chess5.com

Thanks for posting the games.

I think there's a typo in Gelis - Sambuev.

Move 22...Bxc6 is terrible since White has b5 immediately or on the next move. Both players are too strong to miss that. My guess is that Black played 22.Be6.
