Allegro Tournament

 

Results:

Kieran Lyons 2 Greg Colwell 0

Nathan Shaw 1 Greg Colwell 1

 

Only two sets of games played tonight. Greg lost prematurely to Kieran with the both games over well before 9 o’clock. Then Greg managed his first win of this tournament against Nathan is game two. Nathan seems to be falling into the model set by former club stalwart Harvey Quaresmini who had a habit of winning one game out of two no matter the strength of opposition.

 

More transfer chess was played tonight with BJ & Doug teaming up against Josh & Mathew and playing until closing time at 11pm.
