Aug-17-16    Mr. V: Maybe Amonatov could use this money to get some training sessions and break into the European scene. Sep-11-17    Tabanus: Rounds 2, 4 and 5 are missing. Sep-12-17    Tabanus: Plus many other missing games. Standings list updated anyway! For the 40 players with 12 points or more. Two wrong game results found: Yifan Hou vs S Shoker, 2016 (should be 0-1) and Kseniya Balabayeva vs S Sjugirov, 2016 (should be 0-1), but there may well be more. I looked at pgn's elsewhere (incl. the official site) and could not find any with rounds 2, 4 and 5 included. Some sites sent these rounds live, and still have some games.
