The CFC Regular Chess Post – October 11/12 – Vancouver Open.

Ryan Lo, Jason Cao, and Jack Cheng won the 2012 Vancouver Open played this past weekend!

All went undefeated and ended up with 5pts/6 games. Interestingly enough, all three of them went head-to-head during the tournament, which resulted fittingly in their only drawn games.

The added bonus is all three hit their individual all-time high ratings and have jumped into the 2200+ category.

Thanks to Victoria Jung-Doknjas for the report.
