The 18th Annual Northeast Open was held from June 8-10, 2012, at the Sheraton Hotel (formerly Holiday Inn Select), 700 Main St, Stamford, Connecticut.
GM Sergey Kudrin finished ahead of a field that included 6 GMs, securing the top stop with an undefeated 4½/5. After winning his first four games, a final round draw with GM Tamaz Gelashvili was enough to secure the Connecticut based Grandmaster the victory.
