Four games were played, and another
decided on forfeit.
Andrew Mather
won fairly convincingly to move further ahead of the rest of the field, and
will be hard to catch.
In other game, Martin was slightly
ahead for much of the game, and seemed on course for a win until he trapped his
only queen with a one move blunder.
Edwin again featured in the last game
to finish, with Tony showing the power of connected passed pawns.
Tony had a rook and 6 pawns against a
rook, a bishop and 2 pawns, and was always headed for victory from this
position.
Earlier he had sacrificed a piece for
two pawns to avoid a draw on repetition, but it probably Edwin’s failure to
recapture a pawn on Move 40 that sealed the fate of the game.
The game can be viewed here: Tony Morris vs
Edwin Mejia Ortiz.
Daniel Clancy claimed his third win of
the tournament to join the chasing pack behind Andrew Mather,
while John claimed a point from James who was a ‘no show’.
