Five more rounds of action to come! It's not going to get any easier as the pairings in the second-half rounds get tougher and tougher.  Can Judit Polgar pull herself up into the top 10?  That's a BIG mountain to climb.  The next closest female player is GM Antoaneta Stefanova, in 98th place.  EEK!  Personal favorite IM Salome Melia, whom I got to "know" during her appearance at the Montreal Chess Championships back in 2009 (I think it was 2009), is hanging tough.  I would love to see her advance.

Stay tuned for reports as the action advances.
