BC Open 2013 Results
Richmond BC
The 2013 BC Open took place at the Executive Plaza Hotel in Richmond on the new BC Family Day holiday weekend 9 to 11 February. The event drew 79 players from four countries which is close to a 30 year record; surpassed only by a 1984 event and 2 events during the Fischer boom years.
Tanraj Sohal notched a perfect 5-0 score, clinching first place with a last round victory against pre-tournament favourite Butch Villavieja. 1999 BC Open champion Alfred Pechisker, handicapped by a first round bye, could not catch up to Sohal despite a win over Jason Cao in the last round and had to settle for clear second place and a $300 prize.
In the U1800 Section, Hector Rathburn, a relative underdog finished first with 4 ½.
Other prize winners included John Doknjas, Roger Patterson, Hector Velazquez and Matthew Herdin (four-way tie for top U2100), Mau-Seng Lee, Constantin Rotario, Andrew Hoyer and Duncan Haines (four-way tie for second U1800), Doug Sly and Nicolas Peters (two-way tie for first U1500) and Ashley Tapp and Yekta Saremi (two-way tie for top woman) rounding out the $2000 guaranteed prize fund.
Our regular TD, Stephen Wright, had to withdraw at the last minute from TD duties as he was recovering from surgery. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Alonso Campos did the honors in his place.
Thanks to the many volunteers who helped along the way with setup and tear down. Thanks to those who donated (Jack Yoos, Doug Sly).
