Nevada North-South Match, Quickplay Ch. 2014
NV North-South Team Match, Quickplay championship 2014
The two teams from Reno and Las Vegas traveled to Tonopah on September 27-28, 2014 for the annual team match for that big trophy. First of all, I want to say that Juan Pablo Jauregui put most of the team together helped with transportation and there is a big thank you for him. After preliminaries, Las Vegas had to forfeit 6 points to the Reno team, play began and Reno won round one 4-3, and Las Vegas had to win all the games 7-0 to draw the match. Well, Las Vegas won 6-1 in round 2, as Fred Casten and George Fischer were offered draws by Virgil Reyes and Andrew McCarthy, respectifully. Here are individual results…Virgil Reyes-Fred Casten 1.5-.5, Barry Lazarus-Bob Wheat 2-0, Andrew McCarthy-George Fischer 1-1, Lars Pedersen-David Petersen 1.5-.5, Dan Dease-Matt Herald 1-1, Joseph Hubler-Kevin Chung 1-1, Russell Klatt-Andrew Pease 1-1.
This writer played 2 extra games against the Reno players Charles Chinnici and Robert Turner, winning against Charles and drawing Robert. Al Losoff directed the event, assisted by this writer. Juan Pablo posted up to the minute updates and games on the Las Vegas Chess Center page. A BIG thank you to everyone who participated, to Connie and Tina at the Station house and Congradulations to Reno team.
On the 28th, the 7 round Nevada Quickplay Championship took place while game one of the final match between Elliot Liu and Mike Zaloznyy was played. Juan Pablo Jauregui took first with 5.5 (and he said he was going to win!) and the trophy donated by Clark County Chess Club. Virgil Reyes was second and everyone with at least 4 points won prizes. Other scores Ernie Hong 4.5, Charles Chinnici, Dan Dease, Joseph Hubler, Kevin Chung 4, Jerry Weikel, Anthony McCarthy 3.5, Bob Wheat, John Trivett 3, Lars Ledersen 2.5, David Petersen 1.5.
