Summer Game-100 Swiss

The club's summer Game-100 swiss system tournament got under way on Tuesday, June 23rd with the schedule picking up tonight with Round 2 at 8:00 p.m. (Tuesday evening June 30th the club hosted the Garden State Chess League, with at least one make-up game in the summer swiss.) Victor Rosas is directing the tournament and I will work with Victor and other club members to endeavor to post as many of the tournament games as possible, along with schedule information and results. To that end I have sent an e-mail to the creator of the Silverlight Chessboards (Martin Bennedik)to seek his permission to use his weblog display boards here at our site for preesnting games. (See The Week in Chess site: http://www.chesscenter.com/twic/twic.html for an example of these boards.)

In the meantime, here is the game Piccoli - Cohen from round one:
