2020 U/1400 One Day Rapid Play Tournament

2020 one day rapidplay

The Under 1400 One Day Rapid Play tournament was held on 28 December at North Woodvale Primary School. It was held at the same venue and time as the ongoing Gufeld Cup tournament.

Considering details of the tournament were only made available a few days before it's start it was very heartening to get see such a good response, (30 entrants). The majority on the entrants were juniors, although there were two seniors and two UWA students.

One of the main intentions was for the entrants to have the chance to get an ACF Quick rating. The other was to give our juniors some experience in playing under a longer time limit, (25 minutes plus 5 seconds).

The 6 round tournament results were only decided when the last game of the last round had been completed between Celine Ong and Alex Pimenov. Celine had material advantage but Alex's Queen managed to get behind Celine's King and a draw was agreed.

The prize winners were:

1st: Alex Pimenov (5.5), =2nd: Eu Jin Khaw, Joseph Merson King, Shannon Koh & Celine Ong (4.5), =6th: Eric Deng & Sophie Trinh (4).

Special thanks to the all the people that provided assistance in particular David Ellis (Arbiter), David Barry and Dylan Gough (Vega).
