Nevada Open Championship, June 10-11, 2000
(Sponsored by the Southern Nevada Chess Club, directed by Norm Harvey & Allen Magruder, Junior Section directed by Dan Conver)Ninety-seven chess players of all ages turned out Saturday, June 10th, to play in the Nevada Open Championship, making a great beginning for Las Vegas Chess Festival Week. Twenty played in the Open Section, fourteen in the Under 1800 Section, and sixty-three(!) in the Junior Section. Due to the large turnout and a generous donation from Jack Cashman, the total prize fund for the Open and U1800 Sections was increased to $1,150.
The Open Section
Round 1 action saw one upset, with Francisco Vela (1740) taking a full point from Jack (1916). Jorge Barrios (2210), Jorge Franco (2152), and Tom Thrush (2123) gave up draws to Anthony King (1899), Todd Imada (1895), and William Parker (1839), respectively. All of the other higher rated players won.
Round 2 produced several upsets, including Glenn Bidari (2066) over Denis Marrero (2370), Francisco over Jeff Gallegos (2114), John Currell (1800) over John Brown (1900), and Carmelo Fabia (1540) over Jose Ramirez (1768).
There were only three players with perfect scores going into Round 3. David Vigorito (2363) beat Glenn on Board 1, while Francisco lost to Jorge Franco (2152) on Board 2.
In Round 4, David extended his perfect score at the expense of Jorge Franco on Board 1, and Francisco resumed his strong play with a win over Jorge Barrios (2210). Moving into the hunt with wins were Tom over Glenn, Denis over Anthony, and Grover Gray (1900) over William. Going into the last round, David had 4 points, Tom and Francisco each had 3, while Denis, Jorge Franco, and Grover all had 2.5.
The final round saw David draw with Tom to finish a full point ahead of the field. David thereby qualifies for the Nevada State Championship as the representative from Southern Nevada. Congratulations to David! Tom finished tied for second with 3.5. Denis won his second game in a row, over Francisco, to grab his share of second. Completing the three-way tie was Jorge Franco, with a win over Grover. Francisco finished tied for fifth with 3 points and an incredible performance rating of 2232 (492 points above his rating!).
The Under 1800 Section
Round 1 action saw several upsets, with Alan Amici (1603) winning over Ed Silakowski (1762) and Ed Thurnbeck (975) defeating Gerald Shapiro (1732). Laymon McGauhey (1700) gave up a draw to Lloyd Mann, Jr. (Unr.). All of the other higher rated players won.
Round 2 went very much according to form, with the only unforeseen results being Jorge Vela (Unr.) winning over Gerald, and James Davis (1742) drawing with Alan (the first of four draws in a row for Alan!).
In Round 3, the only two players with perfect scores met on Board 1, with Ranen Lardent (1701) taking the full point from Chad Badgett (1760). James Davis won over Laymon to move into second place.
In Round 4, James Davis moved into a tie for first, and a one point lead on the field, with a win over Zack Fahey (1635), while Ranen drew with Alan.
The final round saw James Davis win over Ranen to win the Section with a score of 4.5. Chad won over Ed Silakowski to tie for second with Ranen. There were several noteworthy performances in addition to the prize-winners: unrated Jorge Vela finished with a performance rating of 1526, Arizonan Denny Heuertz's performance rating of 1508 was 440 points above his current rating, and Ed Thurnbeck's performance rating of 1507 was 532 points higher than his current rating!
