After this exciting round there are only 2 players on perfect scores. Ian Rout continued his good form by holding Endre Ambrus to a draw, leaving them both on 2.5/3. Here they were joind by IM David Smerdon and WIM Heather Richards who drew their Round 3 game after Smerdon sacked a piece for 3 pawns, then the exchange (investing a whole rook), but had to bail out with a draw by perpetual. This leaves IM Andras Toth and FM Igor Bjelobrk on 3/3 and playing each other in Round 4.
Smerdon, D (2463) - Richards, H (2150)
