2013 CYCC Champions

Re: Re : Re: 2013 CYCC Champions

There was also some discussion not long ago about the U12G field being quite strong this year. I suggested that Maili-jade Ouellet, despite her 1188 CFC rating, should have no trouble winning. And she did :)

Well done for the champion, but the whole discussion about the U12G field being overly strong had no real merit. Hardly a good time to be looking for a special exemption.

Rd. 6 Standings have just been posted - kudos to the arbiters!

Posting of Rd. 6 Standings?

Have the arbiters given any indication when they think they may get the Rd. 6 Standings posted?

I've got to get the Toronto Chess News (TCN) July 15 Issue out by 7:00 AM tomorrow at the very latest (going to the Can. Open) - and I'd like to report on the results of the regular play at least (I'll have to do playoffs results next Issue).

Just wondering how late I may have to stay up?? LOL

Unfortunately no. Nikita Kraiouchkine was the favourite of his section (U18), but he nearly stopped playing now that he is in college, so it's not surprising that he under-performed. There should be lots of players from Quebec in the top 3 though (although at it was pointed out in another thread, it would be pretty expensive for these players to play in the WYCC).

The U14 section could have been incredibly interesting with the three highest rated players, Razvan Preotu, Michael Song and Olivier-Kenta Chiku-Ratté. It's very unfortunate that none of them could be there (leaving not many opponents to Jason Cao).

Maïli won. I don't know about the other boards though. Lefong (the Quebec coach) was giving the results live on Facebook and the FQE website, but only for local players.

Congratulation to Maili! You were correct when you predict her victory.

Any other champions from Quebec?

Do you know the top board results for Gu12?

Re: 2013 CYCC Champions

That field looks way too easy for Harmony. She could probably have won it in her sleep. Why didn't she try for U8 boys? I think she could have won that handily too

If she played in the Open and won, she would have to use her prize to play in the WYCC U8, this way she plays in the WYCC GU8. If she wins that, time to switch to the Open for
2014. !!
