Re: February 4 Rapid results

While the cats are away, the mice can play!
With the top players playing in Guelph and Victor Plotkin in Moscow, here's a chance for the below 2000 players to score some prize money!
BTW, Victor Plotkin is half a point behind the tournament leaders in the C Group and is playing on board 2 in round 5. No doubt he has gained valuable practice from the regular Saturday Rapid ..... and you can too! See you tomorrow.
