Summer Tournament

Going into the final week there is a tie for first place between Mark Kernighan and myself. Mark beet me the first week of the tournament--- with 15 seconds left on his clock. I am hoping Mark is available for a rematch for the championship on the final week. Thanks to all who played and hope to see you in the fall.

Rematch with W. Orange: September 22

I talked with John Hagerty of the W. Orange club and we have tentatively scheduled the 2md half of the match for Thursday, September 22 @ Kenilworth. The games will start promptly at 8PM. There will be 10 boards - G/90 (with 5 second delay if electronic clock) - in rating order. Given that the latest ratings supplement is a train wreck (players missing, ratings incorrect, etc.) we will be using ratings from the internet or the latest mailing label. Our board 1 will have Black, with colors alternating after that.

Please let me know if you have interest in participating. To be fair to all who made the trek out to W. Orange in June - first preference goes to those who participated in the 1st half of this match.
