Yesterday was the kick-off of the Columbus Alt. Thousands of spectators did follow the matches on BBO. They were not disappointed because lots of interesting and spectacular boards were shown on their screens. We may expect the number of online kibitzers will grow further during the week. After two rounds of play Lavazza (Bilde, Bocchi, Cronier, Duboin, Madala, Sementa) is taken good care of business sofar. The espresso guys do have a clear lead over number two, the team of Paul Street.
