It is over!

Sorry for the lack of updates.  Things have been a bit hectic around here.   Here is a very brief update, more later...

Cameron continued his hot streak after the rest day, beating Timur Trubchaninov (Russia), Harsha Bharathakoti (India), and Puranik Abhimanyu (India) in the next three rounds to take over sole possession of first place. In the 10th and penultimate round he faced teammate and world #1, Samuel Sevian. After a long and well fought battle, he lost. In the final round, Cameron played Parham Maghsoodloo of Iran and won the game to finish with 9 out of 11 rounds. Zhu Yi (China) on board 3 won to finish with 9. The top board, Samuel and Savelliy Golubov (Russia) drew so now there is a 4-way tie for first place. We are anxiously awaiting the official standings to find out who won the title.

Check back later for an update and some pics from the awards ceremony...
