Feb 28th: Photo Gallery,   USCFWebsite. Final standing for prizes and trophies: OPEN, Beginners, FamilyTeams The prize ( the  magnetic Chess Set) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to Harrison COHEN, who win over Artemii KHANBUTAEV by the lowest margin:       1 point/central pawn loss. And the best 12 moves price go to Anthony KOZLOV playing Ariel KORNEYEV. Check the LiChess study: ACC23-02

Jan 24th:  USCFWebsite Final standing for prizes and trophies: OPEN, Beginners; FamilyTEAM The prize ( the  magnetic Chess Set) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to R3 player Temurbek SALOMOV. Leonid won first 3 rounds  against scholastic opponents,  and than make a draw in the Final 4th against Yakov STRELCHIN. If that is sound familiar , it is because this scenario had  repeated from the last ACC tourney on Dec.13th.  However, while all scholastic  opponents have again a negative differential of central pawn loss, according to Stockfish14 computer , but Yakov had  improved this game from the last month and was able to offer a draw from the position of strength. (R1=-23;R2:-29; R3:-16;R4=+6)  As always you can find ALL four round played on  the Board#1  in this LiChess study ACC23-01.

The 1st board action: The prize ( the  magnetic Chess Set) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to Round 3 player Ragavendhar SUNILKUMAR,(best game by the player, who did not won the trophy or money prize).  Leonid won first 3 rounds (against scholastic opponents, under 14) and make a draw in the Final 4th against Yakov STRELCHIN. All his opponents have a negative differential of central pawn loss, according to Stockfish14 computer (R1=-23;R2:-39; R3:-17;R4=-1)  The last game was a draw in 15 moves, but it may be the most educational. It was a most played Roy-Lopez opening, with the Central fork and Black received a slightly worst position, with the last move Leonid could of  secure his victory, but 15.b3? was a mistake, realizing  that, Leonid had offered a DRAW. What was correct move and why, and what should be Black response to take advantage of 15.b3  …  and  to equalize position?  See the LiChess study here  LiChessACC22-10

Oct.25th, ACC22-09Final Standing: USCFsitePrize list sorted by Tie-breaks: OPEN: ACC22-09O  Beginners: ACC-09b-res

The prize ( the  magnetic Chess Set) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to Round 1 player: Sam KUSHRENOV.  Again, we used the best difference in “center pawn loss” between Leonid and a contestant in each game. The lower number is better. Only Scholastic players 13 and younger  were in contest for the prize and TWO of them TIED, However Sam had better tie-break.

Sept.20th, ACC22-08 Final Standing: USCFsite Prize list sorted by Tie Breaks: ACC22-08

The prize ( the best 10″ magnetic Chess Set) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to Round 3 player: Sri GOPAL  Again, we used the best difference in “center pawn loss” between Leonid and a contestant in each game. The lower number is better .  Check the LiChess-ACC-08

The results are:

R1: Leonid 50 – Jeremiah 77    difference  27

R2:   Caleb  71 – Leonid 42      difference 29

R3: Leonid 64 – Sri 73               difference  9 – the Winner 

R4: Philip  37 – Leonid 20        difference 17

Aug.9th, ACC22-07 Final Standing: USCFsite. Prize list Sorted by Tie breaks: ACC22-07

The prize ( Book for chess notation) for best game on Board #1 against our “House Chess Master” Leonid BONDAR goes to Round 4 player: Howard DAI.  It very difficult to determine the best game, and if you would ask human players you may get 4 different answers, so we ask a computer analysis and count the difference in “center pawn loss” between Leonid and a contestant in each game. The lower number is better .  Check the LiChess study

 The Results are:

 R1: Yosef 43 – Leonid 17    difference  26

R2: Leonid 46- Colin  69    difference 23

R3: Sergiy 52 – Leonid 11    difference 41

R4: Leonid 71 – Howard 80 difference  9 – the Winner

Benchmark game between Fabiano CARUANA 47– Magnus CARSLEN 33 in 2020, the   difference 14  – We could not help to point out, that  stat here are showing  that ALL games on Board ONE were very close –  difference is close to the margins of error between #1 in the word Margnus CARLSEN and #2 Fabiano CARUANO.  ( the game was chosen for it educational ending, where Magnus (Black) use a Zugzwang maneuver to avoid a Stalemate)
