Tony won the last game to finish on the night with victory over Joe.

 

Andrew was a pawn up in a rook endgame but a poor move allowed Brian to grab two pawns and a match winning initiative. Realising that all was lost Andrew desperately offered a draw and was grateful for Brian’s generosity in accepting it.

 

Two other games also ended in draws. John Ryland managed to force a repetition to achieve a draw in a close game that could have gone either way. With john Roper into his last ten minutes, John Ryland lost a piece but immediately managed to emerge with a draw following repeat checks on John Roper’s king.

 

James Hiller and Jon Wilson have both requested to be taken out of the tournament. Jackie Carroll will also be removed. However if any of these players attend they can still play games which will be listed but not count towards the final determination of rankings in this tournament.
