With a nice combination of great preparation and tactics, GM So took down the very strong GM Holt who has an incredible record in the League. A pivotal game without which the Arch Bishops would obviously not have captured their first title, and GM So’s incredible fourth game of the week honor of the 2014 Season!
1st Place: GM Wesley So (STL) vs GM Conrad Holt (DAL) 1-0
With the pleasing 24. Rxf6!, GM So continued in a brutal effort which helped lead St. Louis to their first title
The combination of great preparation, some very strong, non-obvious moves by the victor like 14. Bd2! and 24. Rxf6!, and its importance to the match result made this an easy choice for the judges for the top game of the Championship Match.
