How to beat an IM in 15 moves

This game is from an OTB tournament I played in about 5 years ago. 5 Rounds, G/30. It was a state championship qualifier so it had a very strong field, 3 IM's, many Masters and Experts. Round 4 went like this:

Campagnolo wins a playoff game

It tied the match, but bad tiebreaks,

A win by Berke

From T43

Rhenium's ends a very successful season

We've been knocked out of the playoffs. Even if campagnolo wins Tuesday to draw the match the other team goes through on tiebreaks. During the regular season we scored 16 points, tied for most of any U2200 team. In fact there were only eight higher scores of all the teams (121) in all the sections of the league. But it's harder to score in the top section. The team did not lose a match, 3 wins, 3 draws. Maarten scored the most wins with 3. Paulkov, nb, and campagnolo each scored 2 wins. Seaborgium got 1 win in a shortened season. Nosalt, who was nice enough to fill in at the last moment, also got a win, in the playoffs no less. Forfeits accounted for 3 wins but also one loss which really hurt the tiebreak situation. All in all a great season. Looking forward to next season. Hey Niobium and Tellurium players, I'd like write something similar to this about you guys after t47.

nb wins a tough game

Good moves by both sides throughout the game. White was slightly better the whole time and finally gets the point.

perikitosax - nosalt 0-1

Rhenium takes 1-0 lead in playoffs

Nosalt won a nice game to start things off. And he played while away from home on vacation. I post the game later. Paulkov plays Sunday at 21:00 while campagnolo does battle on Tuesday at 21:30. Maarten's opponent is being difficult, that game is not yet scheduled.

Salvatore wins in round 5

Black had a strange plan on the queen-side. Salvatore exploited the waste of time.

A nice win by Ivio

Black makes a mistake with 11..Bxc3 and Ivio punishes him with 12.Nxg7. Some really good tactics to finish him off.

Rhenium round 1 playoff pairings

I'd list the pairings here but can't figure out how to make it a chart view. Go team!
