Round 7 results:
Marty Chadwick 0 Tony Howes 1
Luthien Russell 1 James Hiller 0
Marty played well against Tony until making a blunder which gave away a piece and the game.
On the other board an upset appeared on the hands with James the exchange up for a long time. By the endgame he was a pawn up with each player having Rook + Bishop but frittered away his advantage (and all of his pawns) due to lack of endgame experience.
