FlaccidMoves Wins the First Regular Untitled Tuesday!

Flaccidmoves won the first ever regular Untitled Tuesday Tournament (UTT) against a crowded field of 57 players on April 21st! @Flaccidmoves was the top seed by over 100 rating points at 2438, but the top seed rarely wins the UTT events. This time, with a field of 57 players, five players rated over 2200 in chess.com blitz, and seven more rated over 2000, it would be very difficult for the top seed. And indeed, @Flaccidmoves scored 8 out 10, losing two games but still finishing half a point ahead of @TOPMO3 and a full point ahead of third place, @ChessProdigy2408. 

Flaccidmoves relied heavily on a classical opening repertoire, playing 1.e4 every game as White and the Sicilian at every opportunity as Black. Here is one of his smooth wins as Black that helped secure the tournament victory against a +2200 regular, @smv-k

Congratulations to @FlaccidMoves for a fine tournament performance and a well deserved victory! And congratulations to the other medal winners, @TOPMO3 in second and @ChessProdigy2408 in third! This was a wonderfully competitive Untitled Tuesday!
