Delaware
crowned new state chess champions November 29-December 1, following
a three-day tournament at Delaware Park Raceway & Slots.
Phil Simpkins, Chief Tournament Director and president
of the Delaware State Chess Association, says the annual event always
pits Delaware's top players against each other. The final round is always full of excitement with titles
and places usually decided by the last game to finish. "This year was no different," Mr. Simpkins said. "FM
David Gertler, winner of the 1982 U.S. Jr. Open Chess Championship,
won his sixth Delaware Men's Title by drawing against six-time winner
and defending Champion NM Charles Bouzoukis in the last round on Board
#1 to clinch the Men's Title by 1/2 point over NM Charles Bouzoukis
and Expert John Chernoff. IM
Ed Formanek (PA) along with Terence Coffee (MD). tied for first place
money with FM Gertler.
In a history-making first for the tournament, the top finishing female
player was recognized as the Delaware Women's Chess Champion. "The
U.S. Championship currently crowns a men's and women's champion and
I didn't see any reason why we shouldn't be doing this as well," Mr.
Simpkins said. Colette
Trouve', Delaware's highest rated female player and #50 nationally
won the title by 1/2 point over her closest rival.
The
tournament directed by Delaware State Chess Association president,
Phillip Simpkins, Jr., Esq., with assistance from Newark Chess Club
director Rick Lathem was held at beautiful Delaware Park. Trouvé described
the site as one of the best she had ever played at. "Playing in
the beautiful tiered hall at Delaware Park afforded us a panoramic
view of the track where the stunning thoroughbreds were being trained
and exercised each day. I found it truly inspiring to compete amid
their championship grace and beauty," she said.
In
other Championship events, Expert John Chernoff won the G/30 Championship
with a perfect 4-0 score to win the Quick Title by a full point. While
Christopher Ruckman of Smyrna High School (11th Grade) won the Scholastic
Championship with a perfect score of 5-0 by defeating Marc Longhenry
(9th Grade) of Newark High School who finished with 3-1/2 points in the
final round.
