Rd:3 Pairings: Fuerstman-Daniel, Jenkins-Brown, Dadgar-Shoup
Charlotte, NC 4-11-01: Thirty-two of the Charlotte area's most creative thinkers converged upon our sacred temple of calculators more commonly known as Wendy's in order to compete in Rd:2 of Wendy's XXIV. In the Top Section, NM Leland "Czar" Fuerstman (2013) first sacked a pawn, then a piece before inducing a rare inexactitude from the CCC's top player, NM Frankie "Fritz" Newton (2235). (See Game 0176) Meanwhile, CCC Favorite Son NC High School Champion 17 year old phenom Expert Justin Daniel (2120) bested Patrick "Flanker" McCartney (1915) to keep pace with 2-0. Also, in the Top Section, Dr. Armin Burghart (2022) administered a lethal dose of "Kryptonite" to Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1846) while Daniel "Johnny" Tapia (1776) split the point with NM Daniel "Deep" Liu (2028). In the Cruiserweight Division, a physically spent David "Kamikaze" Jaap (1893) took it on the chin from "Iron" Mike Eberhardinger (1646). In the Middle Section, D. Paul Jenkins (1576) took care of Daryl "Flash" Gordon (1454) while Brandon "Esq.Jr" Brown (1406) defeated "CEO" Mike Isner (1429). In addition, Frank Johnson (1300) upset Spencer "Jazzman" Singleton (1512). In the Lower Section, leading with 2 points are Danesh Dadgar (Unr) who halted the streak of Euphemia Mu (1250) and Michael "You Know You Make Me Wanna" Shoup (1183) who bested Ankit Jivan. Other Lower Section winners were: Winfred Gatlin, Gaurav Gupte, Jered Williams, Michael Peters and Frank Mu. All results may be viewed in the "Current Crosstable."(We now begin at 7:30pm sharp! LF). All welcome new CCC members Jered Williams and Michael Peters. See ya' Saturday at Smokehouse XIV! 
HAPPY EASTER AND PASSOVER TO ALL!!


McCartney Takes 1st In Top; Dadgar Perfect in Lower Section of Smokehouse XIV
Charlotte, NC 4-14-01: On the morning after "Friday the 13th," thirteen of the CCC's most brave attempted to shake off the effects of triskaidekaphobia and compete in Smokehouse XIV.  In the Top Section, Patrick "Flanker" McCartney (1915), in a curious lycanthropic manner, first went to the wire and Drew with NM Frankie "sans-Fritz" Newton (2235) before defeating Dr. Armin Burghart (2015) in Rd:2. In the final round, with an equal position, NM Daniel Liu's (2028) flag mysteriously fell while executing his 30th move!? giving McCartney a score of 2.5-.5 and winning $80. Equal 2nd-3rd with 2-1 were NM Leland "Czar" Fuerstman (2013), who upset NM Frankie "sans-Fritz" Newton (2235) for an unprecedented second time in 4 days! and Daniel "Johnny" Tapia (1769) who upset Fuerstman in Rd:1 each winning $20.In the Lower Section, Danesh Dadgar (1263) ruled the field with a perfect 3-0 winning $45. Equal 2nd-3rd were James "Sticks" Ulaky (1264) and  each winning $15. (Fuerstman directed) Next Smokehouse 5-12.
