IM Edward Porper won the A section of the Fall Sectional with 4.5/5 In the last round he played against NM Alex Yam as they both had 3.5/4. It was quite a seesaw battle but eventually Edward emerged victorious. Even though Alex lost this game his score was good enough to claim second place. The decisive game is provided below. More sectional games will become available later on.
Section B was very tightly and the winner-Richard Pua scored 3.5/5.
Second was shared between Mike Zeggelaar and Hafiz Karmali with 3/5 each.
Section C had a tie for first between the talented junior Jeff De Guzman and Aaron Sequillion with 4.5/5 each. Since Aaron was playing with no prize option the actual winner was Anthony while second went to Mark Nie who scored 2/5.
A special thanks goes to TD Rick Pedersen for running the event!
