The second day of the EGP Prague tourney started with the arrival of a fabulous Othello cake. The Czech organisation was kind enough to send pictures of the cake to Othello News, but........ I would have preferred to receive a piece of that cake!!!!!!! 
And to Miroslav Voráček's, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
The two best players of the first day of tourney, Francesco Marconi and Roel Hobo, both started the second day with a loss. Francesco Marconi lost 26 - 38 against Takuji Kashiwabara. Imre Leader defeated Roel Hobo 42 - 22. 
Miroslav Voráček won against Tom Schotte 29 - 35. A very close game between Tomáš Douda and Marc Tastet which ended in a 31 - 33 win for Marc. Jan de Graaf won 39 - 25 against Félix Juigner. Arthur Juigner won against Luigi Puzzo 22 - 42, so now the 2 brothers are both at 5 points.

In round 10 Francesco Marconi kept the lead with a 39 - 25 victory against Félix Juigner. Marc Tastet lost 24 - 40 against Miroslav Voráček. Takuji Kashiwabara won 30 - 34 against Tom Schotte.
Ranking of best 6 after 10 rounds:
Francesco Marconi leads with 9/10. Behind him with 8 points: Takuji Kashiwabara and Miroslav Voráček.Three players with 7 points: Imre Leader, Marc Tastet and Jan de Graaf. A very disappointing day for Roel Hobo, so far all losses for him on the second day.

In round 11 Imre Leader won 38 - 26 against Francesco Marconi. Takuji Kashiwabara lost 28 - 36 against Miroslav. Jan de Graaf defeated Marc Tastet 38 - 26. Roel Hobo won against Félix Juigner.
Ranking of best  5 after 11 rounds:
Miroslav Voráček (CZE) and Francesco Marconi (ITA) finished the Swiss rounds with 9 points and will play in the final. Three players with 8 points: Takuji Kashiwabara (FRA), Imre Leader (GBR) and Jan de Graaf (NLD). Takuji and Imre will play for 3rd and 4th place in the playoff. Best Lady is Marie Lightman (GBR) with 6/11. Arthur Juigner finished as best player under 15 with 7/11 and Miroslav Neuzil is winner of 15 - 18 year category with 5/11.

Francesco Marconi won the previous EGP Prague in 2013 where he won the final 2 - 0 against Martin Ødegård. Miroslav Voráček made it to the 3/4 playoff in 2013, which he won against Takuji Kashiwabara. Now, the first stage of the European Grand Prix 2015 was won by Miroslav Voráček in his home town. Congrats Mirek!!!
