17:00

End of the 3rd Hanchan, with a small delay due to a scoring issue

No important fact on table for this one, instead 2 Haneman

• Frederic Petit (Tin Azur)
• Maude Grimeberg (TNT)

That been said, a nice move from Apolline Draux (FDO) that though about holding the last chocolate cake portion 10 min before the bell !!

On scoring side, Julien Rateau (TNT) loose his leader status and fall to the 5th place. Quentin Porcherot (FDO) to take the 1st place with a good lead (149500 pts)

Netherless, several TNT players are chassing him, with 2 new entries in the top 3 : Maude Grimberg (TNT) with 116400 pts, and Shinsaku Ikeda (TNT) with 88200 pts

We should not forget Yuji Ohori (TNT), progressing step by step, and beeing now able to access to the podium, with 2000 pts from the 3rd

All eyes are now on Quentin Porcherot (FDO), to know if he’ll keep his leader place with not less than 8 TNT players in chase, waiting for a bad move to steal  the top of the podium.

15:15

End of the second Hanchan

Julien Rateau (TNT) is passing  Quentin Porcherot (FdO) with 101 500 points against 99 500 for the challenger

Paul Beaujean (TNT) climbed up to the 3rd place.

The first blood has been poured, because of the many Haneman:

• Yuji Ohori (TNT)
• Quentin Porcherot (FdO)
• And especially Joe Calberson Huynh (TNT), 2 times, raising him up to the 4th place

To notice, a Double Ron from Nadine Lang (TNT) and Jean-Marc Dedieu (RER) on Bao Tin Duong (TNT).

12:30

End of the first Hanchan

Not so much hard move, because none of the hands reached more than a Mangan.

At the end of this first turn, Quentin Porcherot (FDO) is leading the tournament with 61200 pts

He’s followed by Julien Rateau and Yuji Ohori (both TNT) with around 10.000 less

François Rauzil (TNT), the actual French champion had a bad start with a score of – 10 200 pts.

After this firt turn, a 1h break for lunch…
