Allegro tournament
Results:
Andrew Robinson 2 James Hiller 0
Just two games played tonight. James fought his was into the endgame on level terms, but then conceded a piece to a pin. In the second game James castled queenside against the queen’s gambit and again made his was to the endgame, but missed a few opportunities and was a few decisive pawns down at the end.
Greg put in a brave appearance but was deemed unfit to play. Remaining games will be played next Friday Dec 4, and Dec 18 if necessary.
