One of them, Alex, managed a perfect score and won first place with 3 points and the $80 prize.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to the drama was the fact that we ended with a 4 way tie for second place! Thanks to 2 draws in the first round and a few upsets here and there Anna, Margaux, Viorel, and Avery all tied with 1.5 pts and split the $60 prize!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the smaller turnout it was still a very fun day with great games. Congrats and thank you everyone who played and helped out!  We are looking forward to more U1200 events int he future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-standings\">STANDINGS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the final
