NEWS & VIEWS 1-31-08Newton, McCartney Share Top Honors; Smith "B"; Jivan "C"; Gatlin Lower Section of Quaker Steak Club I Charlotte, NC 1-30-08: This past Monday at 9:00am, I received an E-mail from General Manager David Watson "thanking the Charlotte Chess Club for our patronage" and notifying us that Quaker Steak & Lube had gone "out of business." Talk about loyalty! This Director was extremely gratified that with only 48 hours notice of our change of venue, 22 of the most loyal members of the CCC Royal Guard found their way back to this palacial shrine more commonly known as Wendy's in  order to conclude Rd:5
of Quaker Steak Club I. (A grand total of 40 players competed). In
the Top Section,
the CCC's #2 player, the pride of Crouse, NC, 2007 CCC Player of the Year NM Frankie "Bluffer" Newton (2287) survived a complicated
middlegame versus the CCC's #3 player Expert Shawn "Arlo" Pealer (2082)
but prevailed in
the end to share =1st-2nd Place
with Expert Patrick "Fabio" McCartney
(2006) who dispatched of 16 year old phenom Dominique "the Dominator"
Myers (1828) each with 3.5-1.5.
Clear 3rd Place with 3-2 was NM Leland "Ennui" Fuerstman (2002) who clobbered
Michael "Bolton" Kliber (1984). In addition, traveling from Columbia,
SC, SCCA President Keith "Chuckie" Eubanks (2074)
slowed down that runaway freight train AKA 13 year old phenom Samuel
"Xman" Xin (1995)! In the "B" Section,
Derek "Cats" Smith (1736) made peace with 16 year
old phenom Peter "the Greek" Giannatos (1746) to take clear 1st Place with 3.5-1.5. In
addition, Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1751) AKA "Superman" "fought
for truth and justice the American way" by repatriating Slobodan "the
Proud Serb" Sinanovic (1795) and Dr. Gil
"Sherlock" Holmes (1786)
performed a successful surgical procedure on newcomer Darren Davis
(Unr). In the "C" Section, Ankit "Mehendra" Jivan (1592) envoked the Fischer Rule and
finished clear 1st Place with 3-1. In the Lower Section,  Winfred "Guns" Gatlin (1267) ditched a piece but
ultimately prevailed against "Smokin" Corey Frazier (1130) to take
clear 1st Place with 5-0 and win Free Entry into the next CCC 3 rounder!
Other Lower Section winners were: Joe Benet and Joe Shirlen. All
results may be observed on the current "Crosstable."
Our next Saturday 3 round
event is March 15 (if I
can find a suitable site). E-mail lelandfue@yahoo.com to have
your name placed on the list of players who "Intend to
Participate." |
