Flood Cup

 

Results:

Brian Willcock 0 George Flitcroft-Smith 1 (from Round 4)

Martin Laizans 1 Jim Petrie 0 (from Round 7)

Tony Howes ½ Andrew Robinson ½ (from Round 9)

 

Three games played tonight. Martin won his game first.

Brian lost to George but post-analysis revealed he had winning chances that were missed.

Tony had the ascendancy for much of his game against Andrew thanks to strong positioning. He won Andrew’s queen for a rook and bishop, but eventually hung on for a draw after his king was left alone in the corner trapped by a rook and knight, with a bishop ready to join in to provide mate. The game finished just before midnight.
