Gambito Open #573  7/28/12  

33 players, pretty good turnout. We used a 5 point McMahon pairing system, here are the players in pre-event rating order:  

4 Masters: IM Dionisio Aldama, IM Cyrus Lakdawala, Kyron Griffith and Peter Graves

9 Experts: Nikolay Arutyunov, Peter Hodges, Aaron Wooten, Alan Sebeckis, Tim McGuiness, Leonard Sussman, Bud Stamper, Jeff Turner and Elkaei Rivera

7 Class A: Jason Ma, Buddy Morris, Kenneth Xu, Sridhar Ramanujam, Pejman Sagart, Chuck Ensey and Gregory Ingolia

And here were the Prize winners:

Cyrus drew with Dionisio in Rd 2 and with Jeff Turner in Rd 4. Elkaei beat Experts Alan Sebeckis and Peter Hodges in the last 2 rounds to win clear 1st U2200. New player Gregory Ingolia proved that he was worthy of the Class A rating we assigned to him (he has 3 wins in the curent Wednesday night tournament and a really old 1267 rating from many years ago).
