Other than the Becerra - Perelshteyn matchup, it was 4 GMs versus 4 IMs and
the 4 GMs all had White. At one point, it looked like it would be 4-0 for
the GMs. In time pressure, Hoyos pulled out a draw but others were not as
lucky. Gulko skillfully defeated Schneider in a very difficult Rook and Pawn
then eventually King and Pawn endgame for his first win. Miton defeated
Krush to move into +1 and Hera defeated Lugo to also move into +1.

Standings after 6 rounds:

1. Perelshteyn 4.5/6 (+3)

2-5. Becerra 3.5/6 (+1)
Hernandez 3.5/6
Hera 3/5
Miton 3/5

6-8. Hoyos 3/7 (-1)
Krush 2.5/6
Schneider 2.5/6

9-10. Gulko 2/6 (-2)
Lugo 2.5/7
