Games went with the higher rated player in all Round One games. However there were a few close encounters, with Debbie's performance against George being the best from the bottom half of the draw.
Aaron Michaux and Eric Faccer were last minute entries, with Eric showing off some of his improvement over the past 5 years to win with white. Aaron was disappointed with his own performance which he said was below par. Andrew commenced his defence of the Flood Cup by winning against Brian who attempted a bold sacrifice at move 12 because the game was becoming 'boring'. Harvey managed to gain a piece up against Stuart and ground out a victory. Paul said he played badly on the night, but still well enough to overcome James, who put up a courageous resistance according to his own account.
