James Hiller v Greg Colwell – postponed

Six games were played tonight. The last game to finish was Nathan’s game with Tony which Nathan said later he lost his way in the opening.
Greg has a win there for the taking with two rooks and a queen bearing down on Gary’s king, but in Greg’s words: “I stuffed it”.
Jon played some unorthodox moves that had Andrew on the back foot early, but a rook was sacrificed when Jon missed the correct pawn move. Then at move 17 a disastrous castling, rather than shepherding the king to safety, gave away checkmate at move 18.
