                    [Summary] => 

If ever there was a changing of the guard in Philippine chess, it was graphically demonstrated last night when teener Oliver Dimakiling pushed GM Eugene Torre to the limit and ousted the top seeded player right in the first round of the Chess Pambansa Millennium Grand Prix at the PNB Financial Center in Pasay.

The 18-year-old Dimakiling, needing to win in six minutes with the white pieces, relentlessly attacked Torre's queenside with his Two Knights Opening and clinched the 49-move win when the 48-year-old Torre squirmed in time trouble and lost via time forfeit.
