10th ASEAN+ Age-Group Chess Championships Round 6

One Pinay woodpusher remained unscathed after Round 6 of the ongoing 10th AAGCC.

Drum beating. Trumpet singing. Unroll the red carpet for 14-year old Cherry Ann Mejia who has erected a 6/6 performance so far – and counting.

Handling Black, Mejia forced her Round 6 opponent to resign after 27 moves of a Queen's Gambit Accepted Opening to maintain her solo leadership in the Girls 14 Category.

Meanwhile, erstwhile unbeaten Jedara Docena suffered her first (and hopefully last) setback in Round 6 in the hands of WFM Pham Vich Ngoc of Vietnam. Despite the loss nonetheless, she maintained her solo leadership in the Girls 20 Category with 5.0 points.

Mejia’s dominance over the board in her category can bee seen in this game. Please watch her Round 6 game below.



Other players who are in good contention to bring home medals are the following:

Julius Gonzales 5.0 (Open 8)
John Lemi Daniel 4.0 (Open 10)
Austin Jacob Literatus (Open 12)
Paulo Bersamina 4.0 (Open 12)
Lennon Hart Salgados 4.5 (Open 16)
Patrick Erle Florendo 4.0 (Open 20)

Samantha Glo Revita 4.0 (Girls 10)
Marie Antoinette San Diego 4.5 (Girls 10)
