    Decent turn-out for this one! I can't decide if Shane deserves a bonus point or to hit a landmine for tipping himself to win on board 1 :)

    One landmine hit though - SodaBread sinks to the top of the Tim Harding Wooden Spoon standings after predicting Scott to beat Killian (but he drew). And we have a surprise leader after correctly spotting two of the four draws!

    5 players pick up 3 points for predicting a draw for the wily Fox. Should really only be 2 points for that...

    Won't have time to update this for the whole week, and suggest best is for posters to keep their own score updated as we go along. But for now, I make the standings as below. Any errors, shout.

    I hope so because David Fitzsimons losing today has otherwise cost me all my ill-gotten gains from round 1.

    While waiting for the round 3 draw to go up (delayed by the Rapid event, I guess)...

    Sorry to disappoint the four tipsters who voted for me to draw today. The one who misspelt my opponent's name (accidentally I hope) owes him an apology (and maybe a quiet edit in the meantime)...

    Very dubious tactics by our current champion, copying the predictions of his greatest rival. If this nebulous behaviour continues there will be a stewards enquiry which could result in a points deduction/fine and guess who the steward is😬

    A lot of landmines hit in round 2, which makes the scoring quite complicated, and again feel free to point out any errors!

    Nobody actually missed round 2 in the end, while ishidaogo has joined to bring us up to 19 players.

    I make the standings -

18	L1m1tless	0	-6	-3	-9	3	-6
18	anchor4208	-1	-6	0	-7	1	-6

    Edit - in fact, only one player who has posted their own score agrees with what I've noted above! A recount is called for. Be right back...

    Edit edit - table corrected. "Op bal" is the score at the end of the previous round. So the table above notes the detailed score for this round, then adds to your score to date to get your overall score.

    So I had six differences. In two cases, I was wrong, and in four cases, I think posters have missed that they've hit landmines
