Liberty Bell Open in Philadelphia

I am playing in the Liberty Bell Open, U2100 section in Philadelphia over the Martin Luther King weekend. Other Killers should stop by and say hello.

I’m playing in the same section (2 day schedule)! I’ll try to find you and say hello.

Congrats Robert for tying for first and having the only undefeated performance in u2100! My brain was not working and after three bad losses and a forced bye I decided to withdraw and head home early, but it wasn’t all for nought.

On a whim I decided to play the side blitz event at the tournament and ended up tied for second overall (ahead of a few masters and an IM!) and first u2100 with 6.5/8, despite being the #14 seed out of 43 players. I’ve been doing very well in OTB blitz lately (+150 points in my last 5 blitz tournaments), now need to figure out how to translate it to classical.
