  Penguincw: Congrats to 17th seeded Dragan Kosic (2482) for remaining the lowest rated/seeded player still perfect through 3 rounds of the Bosna Open. It wasn't too hard, as he has yet to face a titled player (or anyone rated over 2218), but in R4, he'll have white against 2nd seed (and highest seed of the home country) Borki Predojevic (2623) with white, who started 2.5/3.
