In the Top Section, invoking the "Fischer Rule,"  the CCC's #1 player, NM Frankie "Blitz" Newton (2233) split the point with 15 year old phenom, newly crowned Expert Daniel "Johnny" Tapia (2001) to lead the Section with 3-1; one full point ahead of his closest rivals.

In the Middle Section, Doug "Sky" Millsaps (1634) manhandled Paul "Survivalist" Lucas (1601), Michael "Y" Shoup (1470) upended Danesh "Ayatollah" Dadgar (1472), Brandon "Starr" Brown (1491) turned the tables on Deneil "Slick" Brazell (1358), "CEO" Mike Isner (1436) initiated a hostile takeover of Spencer "Jazzman" Singleton (1457) and "Iron" Mike Eberhardinger (1675) shared the point with mild mannered Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1757).

Cunningham Sweeps Smokehouse XXII
Charlotte, NC 12-15-01: Fifteen weekend warriors participated in Smokehouse XXII. In the Top Section, a strong contengent from Greensboro led by NM Robin Cunningham (2268) and Mark Smith-Soto (2062) demonstrated their skills against a rather weak field of locals. Cunningham snapped off wins against Chris Mabe (1705), Patrick McCartney (1886) and Howard Hamilton (1471) respectively taking home $100. Clear 2nd Place with 2.5-.5, Smith-Soto bested Jerome "Cookie Monster" DeBell (1675), yielded a Draw to NM L. Fuerstman and finally defeated Patrick McCartney pocketing $50. First Place in the Lower Section with 3-0 was Deneil "Slick" Brazell (1342) who won $40. Second with 1.5-1.5 was Frank "Chessman" Johnson (1469) who pocketed $20.
