Online Chess Tournament - Last Round! (9 round, pairings)
Dear Chess Friends!
These are pairings for the last 9th round of our tournament! The game should be played until 8th of December (this Sunday). You have only 1 week to play!
First 2 pairs played in a draw and now we still have only 1 leader - Kristina! The second is Dadal who can chase Kristina in case of a victory in the next round. Scott has 6 points and can also get a second or third prize.
We have 4 more pursuers: Vadym with 5.5 points, Elliot, Michael & Anusha with 5 points. Any of them can get a prize in case of a victory.
Please, look at the standings after 8 rounds.
If for some reason, you were excluded, but still want to continue the tournament and get back to parings - let me know. My e-mail is tricksofchess@gmail.com
