No More Tues-Wed Tournaments

Tijuanaboomboom | Apr 29, 2023
Our live tournament schedule has taken a severe hit as we have been unable to draw sufficient entries to fill our swiss events for more than half our recent offerings. I know this is partially my fault as I have not been up to writing reports on tournaments for quite some time while recuperating from a deep vein thrombosis. I don't know what my future holds health-wise but I will continue to play chess here on chess.com as long as I am able. I may not resume writing reports. Since interest ...

Brianpawn Tops Double Nickels

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 30, 2023
 brianpawn, who scored 3 out of 3, took the gold in last night's Double Nickels swiss, while Tijuanaboomboom topped Culjakben on tiebreaks for silver after both won 2/3. In the first round, Brian faced off against Shaungarvie's Petrov's Defense. Brian won a knight and later blundered his queen but recovered to win the endgame.On board 2, Slothnroll (playing white) faced off against TBB in the Four Knights game. TBB found a checkmate utilizing the bishop pin and won early.Culjak, playing white...
Wojo wins Double Nickels

Wojo wins Double Nickels

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 23, 2023
Swojnowski was the winner of Double Nickels XVII, Tijuanaboomboom was second and Culjakben got third out of the four players. Round 1 began with Swojnowski vs Culjakben's Sicilian. Wojo sacked a bishop for positional play apparently distracting Ben, and allowing Swojnowski to go up four points, and easily winning. Round 1 also began with Juice declining TJBB's Englund Gambit, taking the advantage when TJ hung a knight early. Juice soon blundered his own knight then lost a tough endgame afte...

DVT Sidelines TJBB

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 22, 2023
My apologies to the club for my lack of participation the last few days but I have been sidelined by a swollen foot I thought was broken. Unfortunately it wasn't quite that minor as it turned out to be a deep vein thrombosis (a blood clot) in a vein just above my right ankle. I will be undergoing treatment for it but will be off my feet for a few weeks. So I missed the small block chevy tournament and it was cancelled for lack of entrants. I am rescheduling that tournament and hopefully it ...
Small Block Chevy swiss is Tuesday

Small Block Chevy swiss is Tuesday

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 16, 2023
Auburn CA CC has hit the 350 mark for members, having welcomed Sheenaru who joined yesterday. As is our tradition, we will need to hold a tournament to celebrate.  Since 350 also happens to be the cubic inches in the most popular V8 engine ever produced, the Chevy 350, let's call the tournament the Small Block Chevy swiss, which will lend inclusivity for those who love the 283 or 305 versions. I remember back when I got my first 350 powered car, an Impala sedan and it came with a quadrajet ...

Chewy Munches Through SUSPECTS

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 12, 2023
Mathchew won twice with black and drew with white to claim gold in last night's USUAL SUSPECTS XXXIII swiss on tiebreaks over Tijuanaboomboom. CadvanDecker picked up a hard fopught win to grab the bronze ahead of Juicegiusti in the 4 player event. Mathchew chowed down on Decker in the opening round in a VanGeet opening, forcing resignation after 11 moves. TJBB jumped on the Juice's French defense but blundered a bishop early to give the Juice a winning advantage. TJ picked up a tempo attacki...

Raiyan1000 Unbeaten Again

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 7, 2023
Raiyan1000 won both his games in an abbreviated edition of the Slow Mow XIV swiss tonight to claim the gold medal. Tijuanaboomboom was second though he won no games. Raiyan opened the tourney with a KID to answer LukeLandwalker's English and after making a weak knight move early, blundered on move 14 to give Luke a significant advantage but on move 20 got the lead back as Landwalker blundered. Raiyan made 2 great moves to win a bishop but then blundered into a mate in 2. Luke found the first...
Pithers Perched Atop SUSPECTS Standings

Pithers Perched Atop SUSPECTS Standings

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 5, 2023
MrPithers survived a first round scare to finish the night undefeated with a 2.5/3 mark to win the gold medal in last night's USUAL SUSPECTS XXXII swiss event.  Claiming the silver medal was Tijuanaboom at 2/3 while Mathchew was bronze at 1.5/3. CadvanDecker  was fourth at 1/3 and FlossyFlo was fifth. For Pithers, things looked sweet in round one as his French defense handled an overly aggressive attack from TJBB handily, picking up an errantly positioned bishop as the middlegame began to u...
TJ WINS BIZARRE DOUBLE NICKELS

TJ WINS BIZARRE DOUBLE NICKELS

Tijuanaboomboom | Mar 2, 2023
Last night's Double Nickels tournament was most bizarre, with only one game played in spite of four players joining the event, which was won by Tijuanaboomboom, who lost the only contested game played. Taking second place after winning that game was swojnowski, and third place went to CounterAttack. Unknown if the games that were not played were due to website issues or something else. The first round had the Count winning without any moves as swojnowski did not appear. TJBB got a one point...

Swojnowski recovered from a first round loss to Hellopeeps14 to knock off Bulletheadbilly and Tijuanaboomboom to grab the gold on tiebreaks in last night's Slow Mow XIII swiss event. Wojo hung a rook late after missing a mate in three against Peeps, but forged full speed ahead vs the Bullet in round 2 before TJ hung a rook late to give him the gold. Bullet got the silver as TJ slipped to the bronze. BHB, meanwhile opened with a win over Juicegiusti then rallied with a win over Peeps in the ...
