Here's Sambuev getting some practice.


Report-CFC
'84 chess players showed up for the 2013 McGill Open. For the first time, the tournament is part of the Oasis Quebec Tour (with $3500 in prizes at the end of the year), and it apparently attracted many players.

The first section, for players who have a rating over 2000, was definitely a good idea, considering how strong the section actually was : 1 grandmaster, 1 international master, 1 FIDE master and 7 national masters (FQE) showed up.

GM Sambuev won the tournament without too much trouble, finishing with a perfect score of 5/5, 1.5 points ahead of the second place.(more)'

See the nice full report for more pictures and 2 games analyzed by FM Kleinman. Nice job by the CFC.
