Recent Events: Rilton Cup
Tuesday, January 12, 2016 at 5:47PM
The Rilton Cup finished last week and produced two new members of the 2700 club, Jon Ludwig Hammer (actually, he had made it over before dropping below the magic number) and Maxim Rodshtein, who won the event with 8/9 and a terrific 2876 TPR.
HT: Marcus Uneson, who also drew my attention to the game Krasenkow-Hammer, which Hammer called the best game he ever played. (Note especially his 31st move.)
[Update: Fixed Rodshtein's score - see the comments section.]
