Newton Leads Top; F. Mu, Munnell, Gatlin Middle; Filling Lower Section of Wendy's XLI
Charlotte, NC  1-2-03:  A moderate turnout of 27 of the Metrolina area's most affable energumens journied to our sacred temple of  thinkers more commonly known as Wendy's in order to participate in Rd:4 of Wendy's XLI. In the Top Section, the CCC's #1 active player, current State Champion NM Frankie "Blitz" Newton (3.5-.5) (2257) defended accurately against NM Harold "Wyn" Mouzon (2-1) (2192) to maintain the lead with 3.5-.5. Meanwhile, Chris "the Babe" Mabe (3-1) (1904) outplayed Patrick "Flanker" McCartney (1.5-2.5) (2033) (See Game 0282) while NM Leland "El-Duce" Fuerstman (2-2) (2033) outlasted Michael "the Mad Rumanian" Curcuru (0-2) (1811). In addition, NM Daniel "Schlecter" Liu (2000) split the point with Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1853). In the Cruiserweight Division, Deneil "Sean" Brazell (2-2) (1807) outpointed  "Iron" Mike Eberhardinger (1-2) (1617). In the Middle Section, Frank "Moo" Mu (3-0) (1675) handled Slobodan "the Mad Serb" Sinanovic (.5-3.5) (1739), Jonathan Munnell (3-1) (1453) riddled Chris "Dirty Harry" Callahan (2.5-1.5) (1452) and Winfred "Guns" Gatlin (3-1) (1410) upset the good Reverend Bernard "JoeDon" Baker (2-2) (1567) to each lead with 3 points.

Moore (.5-1.5) (1700)! In the Lower Section, newcomerTravis Filling (3.5-.5) (Unr) bested Hassan Hashemloo (0-3) (1383) to lead with 3.5-.5.

Jurjevic, Mabe Share Top Honors; Eberhardinger Perfect in Lower Section of Smokehouse XXXIV
Charlotte, NC 12-21-02: A rather moderate  turnout of 18 indefatigable chessplayers participated in Smokehouse XXXIV. In the Top Section, which was noticably absent of most of Charlotte's top players, (some speculated that the fear of losing was the reason), NM Joseph Jurjevic (2154) shared the point with Kenneth J. Baxter (1900) in Rd:1 before logging in victories versus Deneil "Sean" Brazell (1746) and Daniel "Johnny" Tapia (2114) while Chris "the Babe" Mabe (1886) drew Expert Tapia (2114) in Rd:1 then defeated Robert C. Moore (1700) and Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1853) to share =1st-2nd with a score of 2.5-.5 and take home $75. The Lower Section was dominated by "Iron" Mike Eberhardinger (1600) who reeled off wins versus James MacDougall (1696), Mark "Chessman" Johnson (1486) and the good Reverend Bernard "JoeDon" Baker (1575) to score a perfect 3-0 and take home $80. Honorable mention goes to Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1853) who upset NM Fuerstman (2064) and Expert Keith Eubanks (1997) in Rds: 1 & 2.
