Jun-27-12    PhilFeeley: A good reason why open Swiss tournaments are dangerous for strong players: W J Stewart vs Robson, 2012 Jun-27-12    Jossy: nice! Jun-28-12    LIFE Master AJ: I played in the National Open back in the 1990's ... Jun-30-12    HeMateMe: This was somewhat ignored by the kibitzers. I guess the games got dropped in at the same time as a bigger event. Jul-30-12    zoren: Past years ago usually generated a lot more interest with Nakamura, return of Kamsky, Loek van Wely, Ray Robson making a splash, and the rise of a number of Filipino GM's. In a way it's a stepping stone for strong (American) players, few of the above mentioned players had a lot of interviews and it was a good way for them to get on a good footing. Congrats to Lenderman!
