The pairing for the second round:
| white | black | result |
| Ktulu | Tzunami | 1-0 |
| Joker | Deep Sjeng | 0-1 |
| The Baron | Hermann | 0,5-0,5 |
| The King | Rybka | 0-1 |
| Pandix | Hiarcs | 0-1 |
Hiarcs is playing remote on a computer in the USA, Rybka plays remote with its 40 core machine probably in Budapest. And The Baron plays remote on a machine in Ruurlo, The Netherlands.
The programs Pandix and Tzunami play without opening book! Which is brave I think.
Hiarcs had some network trouble, but by moving the game to the bar, it was solved. No it was not the beer, since the last tournament we played here a wifi-forwarder has been installed. And Hiarcs was in the middle of both wifi-points and could not choose which to use. Next round we switch off the forwarder and the remote machines via wifi are relocated.
