Kind of a late update, but the JPL Open and Unrated is going on now. The Unrated section is in their final round.
The rated Open is currently in round 3.
Tourney wrapped up about an hour ago.
Board 1 was the final game to finish, the result determining if there would be a clear first place or if there would be a tie at the top.
NM Ron Luther won his game against Zach Schuh, guaranteeing at least 2nd place overall.
Matt Pratt was able to convert his game against Selden Trimble, giving a tie for first at 4.0 points.
Jason Delpire won his final round game along with the U1600 prize. Riley Shoaf also won his final game to receive the U1400 prize. His opponent, Jerry Naylon, edged out the U1200 field by half a point, to win the last of the prize pool.
Tourney has been submitted and should be on the MSA soon.
