Kids & Amateurs #5 and Pawn Storm #9

The Sacramento Pawns club will again host the usual two weekly online tournaments on Saturday afternoon, May 30th. If you are rated under 1400 in Chess.com rapid rating, then join the Kids & Amateurs starting at 1:30 PM. The open event, called Pawn Storm #9, begins at 3:00 PM. Be aware that both events require a minimum of four players to avoid automatic cancellation. 

I regret that I fell behind in publishing tournament recaps with games. Perhaps Mr. Mago believes he is the reason, but that's not quite true. I promise he will still receive the honor he deserves.
