Nouri, barely in his teen and protege of boxing national hero Manny Pacquiao, showed the way to Jason Salubre to lead his team amass 7 points of a possible 8 points and a share of early leadership with Property Expert Realty B in the 64-team field.

The Realtors, made up of four unranked campaigners and one of the three teams the realty firm doing battle here, created a sort of a stir in the 256-player cast width stinging reversal of the a side reinforced by National Masters Ronald Llavanes and Bob Jones Liwagon.

Five teams, inculding opening day co-leader NICA Tim Ilonggo were cramped in second place with 6 /2 points each.

The Ilonggos edged Tanza Belvedere, 2.5-1.5; the same results submitted by Team Anthony del Rosario over M.A. Yabut Team B of Pampanga, 2.5-1.5; the Bulakenos and Tagaytay City. Dimanchintucan took the measure of Properety Expert Realty A, 3-1.

Still two teams -- Gensan Omicrons and MDFragata followed with 6 point apiece -- while Cotabato Province, Elman Team A, Pacman Team C and SLVP had 5.5 points each. Bobby Pacquiao A, Bobby Pacquiao TEam B and Elegcant Houses of Pampanga, Inchess Asia, Nurjay Sahali A, M.S. Yabut B, JJO-CDO Kingslayer and TARAKA of Lanao Sur had 5 points each.

Two more upsets marked the third day of competition with NM Merben Roque's MDFragata, embarrassing the Graxndmaater Joey Antonio-powered side of Novelty Chess Club of Quezon City.
Pacman PWD matched that feat with a 2 1/2-1 1/2 conquest of favored Team Babablacksheep, 2 1/2-1/12.
