Gambito #396

Gambito #396  11/15/08

30 players, great turnout. McMahon pairings with M/E=3, A=2, B=1, C and below=0. 

Nice to see Ron Soto and Julian Rodriguez today, they only rarely play in the Gambito Open. Ron's last Gambito was #308 and then before that it's all the way back to #181. Julian's last few were #178 and #173! But they both won their section, and in fact Ron, a strong Class A, rated 1961, won the BU2200! The competition is heating up! Also welcome to Expert David Rupel, visiting once again from the State of Washington. Check out the two games posted on Recent Games from this event. 

Today we had 4 Masters, 7 Experts, 10 Class A, 5 Class B and 4 Class C and below. There were several big upsets: Chris Wonnell defeated Dimitry Kishinevsky in Rd 2, Edgardo Navera got a win over Marlon Icban in Rd 3 and in Rd 4 Tom Victory defeated Carey Milton. Some other minor upsets: Leonard Sussman earned a draw with Ron Bruno and Ron was able to draw IM Cyrus Lakdawala. Jorge Balares defeated Peter Graves and Kyron Griffith defeated Raoul Crisologo.   

Don't forget GAMBITO #400, coming up on December 13th!! Mark your calendars! 5 rounds, Big Prizes, special guest appearances (?) ...
