PHOTOS OF THE 3rd ROUND--

1st S.C.T.T. (Aug. 19, 2018)

Rustum Cabuso, right, just waited for Dennis Gonzales (his opponent in the 3rd round). He didn't come so Rustum got a point while Manuel Mahor, Jr., 2nd from right, played Joel Gemota and won, too. Joan Gemota, 2nd from left, averted a potential sweep by whipping her teammate to 2018 Batumi, Georgia World Chess Olympiad Angelica Magno...
