Hallo! Round 2 of the tournament I give below in PGN. Thanks to Robert and Micha for the encouragement. By this weekend, I will post the PGN files and crosstable on the web, but I haven't found a good site for it yet.

In this round, the top 2 contenders faced off, Berlin Pro v. Atlanta, and they will meet one more time. The Berlin Pro built up a win by move 50, but then the short time control became a factor and it couldn't find the win, allowing a repetition. The Star Diamond got an easier opponent in the Polgar and took advantage of that to gain the tournament lead.
