The first 2 rounds went according to script, although there were a couple of upsets lower down. Round 3 saw the clash of the top seeds, with Junta Ikeda and David Smerdon drawing on the top board, and Max Illingworth defeating Endre Ambrus on Board 3. This allowed Andras Toth, Max Illingworth and Sam Grigg to lead with 3/3. In the 4th round Grigg forced a perpetual against Toth, and Smerdon beat Illingworth. Ikeda then joined the leaders after Ambrus' mobile phone went off.
So at the halfway point Smerdon, Toth, Ikeda and Grigg share the lead on 3.5/4. A full crosstable is in the comments section to this post.
