Re: Montreal - Pere Noel tournament

Final results: 4.5/5: GM Alexandre Lesiege ($1000). 4/5: Zhong Yang Yu, Hugues Masse, GM Bator Sambuev, Maili-Jade Ouellet, and Francois Leveille (probably $150 each). A draw knocked out both GM Thomas Roussel-Roozmon and Shawn Rodrigue-Lemieux - a win for either would have put them in the money as well. Here are the deciding games (all Open section games will be available sometime Saturday - watch this space for the link):
