Dear chess fans,
this Friday the fifth round of S12 was played with 20 participants and so we are already halfthrough this season! It was a "normal" 3+2 arena (including berserking).
@jaki01 ended up as winner again like in his last appearance (in round 3). It was very close with the runner-up, @kreur (welcome to S12!), just one point behind, followed by @sawko as third with the same number of points. Congratulations to All!
I played so badly that it is really disgusting. I need to tick this off and move on.

The rules you can look up in the S12 announcement post.
After 5 of 10 rounds @sawko could extend his lead to @eniolw (who surprisingly was missing). 20 points is the gap now. Hard to imagine that anybody still could stop @sawko!
See you all next week - and keep practicing!
