Fellow BCF players,
Although this tournament started off growing slowly, in the end we had a respectable showing of 32 players. Congratulations to our visitor from Turkey, Ridvan Sakir, who was playing in his first USCF-rated tournament, and who took the Open Section 1st Place with a score of 3.5 Points. (David Grazian took 2nd Place with 3 Points.)
The two Ji brothers, Y Owen and Y Luke, also joined us, and they carried out a sweep. Owen took 1st Place int eh U200 Section with a perfect score of 4 Points. Luke split the U1500 1st Prize with Dhairya Mehta. Both are also Spiegel Cup contendors. Congratulations to both.

Word came to me today that BCF and Harvard Chess Club will be collaborating to host a 6-Round Double Swiss Blitz on Sunday 4/28/19.. Stay tuned to see that become a reality. In the meantime, see you over the board.
