My losing streak continued through this tournament.  My 3rd round opponent, Lamont Allen, was returning to tournament play after a long hiatus.  I remember that he was listed with a rating, but the USCF reset him and he was 'officially' unrated for this game.  He would end up playing a very big role in my chess life a few years down the road.  That story will definitely be unfolding in this blog.
