In the past four years, three WI players won it (Erik Santarius, Hongkai Pan and now Anthony Parker). It's one of my favorite events.<br /><br />No Northeastern this January, but perhaps later in the year. It appears that the next adult tournament is the US Amateur Team Championships: see uschess.org, www.wischess.org or www.wichessacademy.com for information.<br /><br />Please let Ashish and me know if you need teammates! We are really trying to keep this event in Wisconsin and this year's attendance will determine if we continue to hold the event.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />AlexAlexhttp://www.wichessacademy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33487099.post-53786992835654336922010-01-02T23:23:22.432-06:002010-01-02T23:23:22.432-06:00Way to go Anthony!!

I played a rather strong IM who was in high 2400's at his peak, but maintains 2400+ nowadays. His strongest student GM Berkes is on the National team. <br />Need to figure where I misstepped in the opening.... it's h6 according to our brief analysis,but will see. Ne5 instead of Nc5 would have led to some real comp for the pawn. Today I play the same guy with white.<br /><br />[White "*Meszaros2412"]<br />[Black "*Betaneli2299"]<br />[Result "1-0"]<br />[ICCResult "Black resigns"]<br />[Opening "English: Neo-Catalan accepted"]<br />[ECO "A13"]<br />[NIC "RE.10"]<br />[Time "23:47:45"]<br /><br />1.
