RESULTS OF WARMUP SWISS
Congratulations to Michael Gilligan for winning the warmup swiss with a perfect score of 4-0. Time off from chess apparently agreed with him. George Paulik finished in second place with a score of 3.5 – 0.5 giving up a half point with a first round bye. John Bitz finished in third place with 3 points. Thanks to Paul and Soren for playing as house players. This event has been rated by USCF: https://www.uschess.org/msa/XtblMain.php?202406116542.0-12349620
