GM Marat vs GM Li Chao. This is an interesting game to watch, coz Li Chao never give up in attacking Marat, and Marat was defending well too. But one slight mistake for pushing the e-pawn cost Marat the game. Before Li Chao take advantage of the blunder, he gave a disbelief look at Marat..
Malaysian : Masrin Erowan, and Mohd Fairin Zakaria

Another Malaysian : FM Lim Yee Weng who gave an impressive performance in DATMO, he finally got his IM!

GM Susanto was leading the pack in the beginning, and he beat Li Chao in the process too.. But I guess, it is a hard task to maintain the lead..
