One Hour tournament – Play-off
Results:
Phillip Kirkman 1 Andrew Robinson 0
Phillip Kirkman in One Hour champion after a win over Andrew in a close fought game. Showing no ill effects from his recent sojourn in the United States, Phil played an aggressive e4-f4 line against the Sicilian which resulted in him having advance d4-e5-f4 pawn formation. Andrew advanced the g pawn to aim for space and an attack kingside, but was thwarted by Phil’s dominance on the other side, and a bad knight that had nowhere to go. When Phil finally won the pawn on b7 the game was as good as over, and Phil cleaned up easily.
Congratulations to Phil who has now won the Flood Cup – One Hour double. He becomes the ninth different player to win the One Hour tournament in the past eleven years.

Just five sets of game played tonight. Debbie and Mark shared the points each winning with black. Garvin won both games on time. Marty seemed to be fuelled by something inspirational, taking the first game with ease against Harvey before Harvey grabbed the second game. Other fixtures saw Harvey score two wins against Mark, and Debbie likewise against Tim.
