Kim Tufts an169@chebucto.ns.ca reports:

"What was organized on a lark a few days before turned out to be NS's largest Active ever! Credit should be given to our use of the Internet. A message over our listserv (a subscription based e-mail bulk mailer) prompted 32 players to attend, most with less than 100 hrs notice! (Internet use is in NS per capita, and especially Halifax, the highest of anywhere in Canada.)

The players virtually took over the entire coffee shop on Spring Garden Road. Although hectic at first, a pleasant afternoon was spent playing chess as the music of Bach and Beethoven drifted around us.

The surprising winner in the Open Section was cadet Tyler Reddy. Despite being rated only 14th of 16 Tyler surprised many. Especially interesting was his last round win over Antoni Wysocki where advantages were traded throughout. Antoni had a clear advantage at the end but ran low on time in a wild position where both players threatened mate-in-one but were always countered. Antoni won a rook for a pawn on the 7th which couldn't be stopped but promptly lost his positional edge for it! Having spurned several perpetuals earlier, Antoni could only look on in horror as his King took a long march around the board to mate. Congratulations to Tyler who kept his head in some very tense games.

John Klapstein won the U1600 section. Many thanks to Jerry MacKinlay and the staff at the Great Taste Coffee Shoppe for the site."
