Lim Zhou Ren Maintains Top Gun Position, CNY Rapids 2010

Lim Zhou Ren is top gun at Chinese New Year (CNY) Chess Rapids 2010 at the Excel Chess Academy at the end of the first day of the tournament.
The CNY Chess Rapids 2010 allows a 20 minute plus 30 second increment as its time control for each player per round. Five rounds per day will be played until ten full rounds of games are played per player. It is punishing if you are not used to it.
Lim ends the day with 4.0 full points from five rounds. Followed closely behind by Mark Siew and Yeoh Li Tian, both with 3.5 points. Dark horses Jax Tham, Sumant, Alfred Ting, and Tan Jun Feng are all tied at 3.0 points per person.
Tomorrow Lim Zhou Ren faces off with nemesis Jax Tham on the top board in round 6 beginning at 9.00 am, 27th February 2010. The underdogs Yeoh Li Tian and Mark Siew will meet each other. While on third board, Sumant Subramaniam will meet new kid on the block, Alfred Ting. Please visit the Excel Chess Academy in Overseas Union Garden, Kuala Lumpur tomorrow, 27th February 2010, if you are curious to know who will end up the winner of the CNY Chess Rapids 2010.
