Re : Prizes ?

We have massive ties in some sections (like section B) and we want to be completly sure of the prizes before posting them. Tiviakov won the Armageddon tiebreaks, as I mentioned yesterday, which was only for the title and the name on the Molson Cup. He also had the best tiebreaks and won $3200 (if I remember well). We only gave the prizes for the winners in each section yesterday, and will mail and publish all the other prizes this week (hopefully today or tomorrow).

Prizes ?

All prizes will be posted soon.

It would be nice to know the prizes - at least in the top section.
It is not easy to figure them out: Hort Sytem, Armageddon tiebreak (I can't see it mentioned in the "INFORMATION" web page of the tournament) etc.

Thank you.

As the tourney has ended right now, is there any chess player who has achieved an international norm for the titles?

Are the results of the B section (2000 - 2400) posted anywhere?

Tiviakov won. We will publish the videos of the games next week. We will publish the full list of prize winners soon, but we want to make all verifications before.

Who won the Mini Coc?

What did you mean?

[Felix Dumont]

Re : Re: Re : Re: 2014 Canadian Open Announcement

As far as I know, a lot of people got 3.5/4 and would tie for first. The arbiters are making sure that we indeed have all the results correctly and we will most likely announce the winners at the CO closing ceremony (and mail the cheques for those who won't be there).
