Heavily outranked on most boards we gave it a good shot!
1
Nick was in his match all the way but a pawn down made a minor mistake towards the end which cost him his game.
2
I
sacrificed 2 pawns to rip open his castled king and had relentless
pressure for most of the game, but my opponent did not falter. He
spotted every trap and tactical switch which would have won me the game,
avoiding several checkmate positions. Eventually he rode out the storm
and I threw away a knight letting him win comfortably. I came very close
to a win.
3
Keith played an even game before edging ahead for a well fought win.
4
After
studying his opponent last time we played Macc Geoff was hoping to play
the same player again. The initial line up was that he would not, but
after we defaulted on board 5, David Mallinson dropped out on board 3
meaning the other 2 moved up a board and Geoff got his man. Sure enough
his study paid off and he moved into a commanding position and a
comfortable victory.
