After all rounds were played, the dust settled quietly back on the floor and the scores were counted. The final result was that Rookie (by Marcel van Kervinck) won the ICT13 tournament. It made a very nice exchange sacrifice for the attack on the The Baron's king, but had to fight for a draw in the end. As Dirty only managed to draw against The King it was just Rookie at the top of the list. Dirty became second and The Baron third. So Marcel van Kervinck received the "Theo van der Storm" cup for winning the ICT13.

Unfortunately, as the author of this article had to hand out the prizes he could not take photographs of the prize giving ceremony. Hopefully one of the other people who did make a photo will donate it for the website!
