Score after Game 12:  Alex Moiseyev (8 Draws - 3 Wins - 1 Loss)

Day Four - Monday 9/5/2016:
 

It's Happy Labor Day, and the final day of our 11-Man WCM!  GM Alex Moiseyev has a two-game lead into today's play, so expect aggressive play from challenger GM Jim Morrison as he tries to narrow the gap and force a playoff tomorrow, or even win the title outright today! GM Morrison has been Moiseyev’s most difficult challenger for this title.

Rejected 1st ballot draw as: off 9 & 26 move 12-16 & 22-18 - Second ballot as: Opening for Games 13 & 14: remove 8 & 22, play 9-14 24-19.
