Last night was the last round of Summer 2017 Tuesday Night Marathon. I
was playing in second board against the top seed Tenzing Shaw (2310)
while each of first 4 boards were deciding the final standings of the
tournament. Derek O'Connor
won against Romulo in first board being sole champion with 7 points
while I luckily drew a 2 pawn down rook end game against Tenzing.
Elliott won a competitive game against Condra Diaz being sole runner up.
With this draw I became jointly 3rd with 4 others with 6 points out of 8, also grabbing best Under 2200 performance and $120 prize money. My son Ahyan Zaman won a very long and drawish end game against my ex-colleague and friend Bruce Ricard
with best Under 1400 performance and $115 prize money! Also in that
group with Ahyan the other best Under 1400 performance with the same 4.5
score was my another ex-colleague and friend Ganesh Mathroobutham. A
tense night ended with dreaming results for us.
