we'll find out who it is in a few minutes when Loz posts the results. They are Dutch so maybe Yichen Han?

Re: Loz Cooper's 50th Birthday Blitz
Correct. Peter Svidler was also in the field. It's not very often I can boast playing Mathew Sadler ( loss) Marcus Harvey ( draw), Ameer Ghasi ( draw), Jonah Willow (draw) , Loz Cooper ( win) and Shreyas Royal ( win ) all in a row in online blitz, (and then find that my 6.5/9 is only enough for 4th = ( 6th on tiebreak).
