Photos from Saturday Swiss 3/9/2019

These pictures were taken by me during Saturday's tournament.

In the first round, Nikita Panasenko drew against Timothy Xie, NM Mauricio Camejo did the same against Errol Singh, and Aarav Mahajan lost to filler John Moldovan.

Timothy Xie and Errol Singh drew their game in round three.

There was yet another draw when Errol Singh played against Nikita Panasenko in the final round.
