Aeroflot 2009 Round 2 Group A1 pairings & results

Here are tomorrow's pairings for Aeroflot 2009, group A1. I won't start posting the standings until later in the tournament. At this point anything can happen, like GM Wesley So's win. I will update the games as soon as I can when the results come in, which can take some time as one game went to 102 moves today before a truce was called. Also we have game 2 of Kamsky-Topalov, with Kamsky having the white pieces to work with to try and put GM Topalov in an early hole.
