I also won round 1 against a 1700's player. I wasn't happy with this game. My opponent gave me a great position and I didn't know what to do with it. I barely produced a win with 5 seconds left. Maybe I can learn something from computer analysis.
Finally in round 3 I beat an 1800's player who made me play on a big wooden set that I didn't like. He played an Albin Counter and it was a tough struggle that went down to about 25 seconds for both players.
So I won the top section of a 39 person tournament. The usual Experts were a no show but there were 4 Class A players.
