Final Results, Norcal House of Chess Winter Chess Championship

On Feb 26 and Feb 27, a 5 round FIDE qualifying tournament (in the Open section) sponsored by the Norcal House of Chess was held in Fremont at the Allstar Institute.  A total of 53 players in 3 sections played.  The Allstar Institute is a new place for chess tournaments, and it is a very decent place to hold a tournament.  Centrally located in Fremont with a few restaurants nearby and a hotel next door.

The Open section was a mix of the Old World veterans, with 4 masters, and the New World, consisting of many of top under-14 kids in the country.  The Old World took most of the top spots, but there were a few surprises along the way.  Allan Beilin upset NM Ronald Cusi, and Weibel Team members Michael Wang drew with NM Cusi and Kevin Moy drew with IM Ricardo DeGuzman.

  1. Hey Carl. It's not a FIDE-Qualifying tournament. It's simply a FIDE-rated event in the Open Section.
