Die 14. Ausgabe wurde mit 14 Spielern absolviert
"Mein Lieblingssieg ist, wenn noch nicht einmal klar ist, wo mein Gegner einen Fehler gemacht hat.
Peter Leko"
The 2nd round of the new year was once again an outstanding sporting event on Steemit! SecularSagacity alias @ape-5th was again able to maintain its leading position, but @iobates has shown his great form with the same score. With 6 victories in a row he succeeded in the catch-up and the deserved 2nd place. I had incredible luck in my first two games and could hardly stand on the chair for joy. Here is the result:
Die 2.te Runde des neuen Jahres war wieder einmal ein herausragendes sportliches Ereignis auf Steemit! SecularSagacity alias @ape-5th konnte wiederum seine Spitzenstellung behaupten, allerdings hat @iobates mit gleicher Punktzahl seine großartige Form unter Beweis gestellt. Mit 6 Siegen in Folge gelang im die Aufholjagd und der verdiente 2. Platz. Ich hatte in den beiden ersten Partien unglaubliches Glück und konnte mich vor Freude kaum mehr auf dem Stuhl halten. Hier ist das Resultat:
