Jack Hates to Lose! Re: BC Closed

Wow, Jack sure loves draws...

Well actually, even more importantly, Jack hates to LOSE.

So he never does.

Congratulations once again Jack on your undefeated performance!

Great idea and well done. I recently bagged my facebook page because FB is a time sink and frankly an idea whose time is past, BUT ... it works really well as a free server!

As predicted by many in the B.C. chess community, FM Jack Yoos won the 2010 B.C. Closed Chess Championship yet again. Each year he’s the perennial favourite, and he almost always delivers.
