Results of the August 6th Tournament

This is the place to share your experiences with or 
comments about the August 6, 2023 Tournament! 

Congratulations to all the prize winners and 
thanks to everyone for their participation! 

1st: CooljTheBeast 5 points = $20.

2nd: COOLDUDE1765 4 points = $15.

3rd: Rx4winners 4 points = $12.

4th: raaadman 3 points = $10. 

5th: AydenY35 3 points = $8.

Of course it was expected that CooljTheBeast would perform according to his rating but he did have to survive several lost positions enroute. As far as players that I have trained with I found the overall performance of COOLDUDE1765 notable with respect to rating improvement and in single games teslax7 scored an upset with his draw against metaneek after both players missed multiple wins; https://lichess.org/WJ2GGvqb and pinktesla scored a big upset against turkeygravy1 which yielded a massive rating gain of +76 ref: https://lichess.org/KY44znPQ
