Smerdon wins, Rogers 3rd at Phuket

The 7th Bangkok Chess Club Open, which was held from March 27th to April 1st, was squarely taken by up-and-coming Australian talent IM David Smerdon. Australian number one, GM Ian Rogers, was outdone by countryman, who won clear at 7.5 points from 9. The tournament was held in the sunny getaway that is Phuket Island in Thailand, and for some this made all the difference.
