Austin Chess Club

October 22, 29, November 5, 12 - Almost Thanksgiving Standard Swiss.

Another hard-fought event!. Drew Sarkisian took clear first in the Open section with 3.5 out of 4, good for $100. Jeff Sneden (ranked 13th!) turned in a remarkable performance, taking clear second with an undefeated 3 points, taking home $60 for his efforts (never mind gaining a bit over 100 rating points in the process). Well done, Jeff! Four players tied for third place, good for $8 each: Michael Langer, Lu Gao, Alan Laverty and Samuel Fung.

Scott Slade and Ju Hyung Ahn tied for first in the Under 1800 section with 3.5 points, earning $55 each. Joanna Wu won the Top U1200 prize of $25.

Thank you all for participating. Have a great week, and see you this Sunday night.

Drew Sarkisian.
