  • IM Jean Hebert joins 2009 Zonal

    Quebec legend IM Jean Hebert has joined the ranks of the 2009 Canadian Closed and Zonal Championship. Welcome aboard Jean!

    In 2007, Jean finished in a four way tie for first before losing a marathon blitz match against Nikolay Noritsyn, who went on to defeat Samsonkin for the title. The same cast of characters has returned this year, along with Bluvshtein and Porper, who together rebuffed some of the world's best in Edmonton. It's shaping up to be a great battle.
    This year's champion will be seeded into the World Cup in Khanty Mansiysk, a knockout style tournament scheduled for late November.

    Bluvshtein, GM Mark 2558
