Two games were
played tonight to commence this year’s Flood Cup.
The tournament
has a compact eight entries and therefore games will be played according to a
round-robin format draw.
Rex produced a
big surprise to defeat Tony Howes.
With a pawn
down, Tony had a difficult position which was however not insurmountable until
he overlooked a move Rex played which led to checkmate.
Martin claimed
after his game that he had the game won at Move 8, and he certainly had a
strong advantage at this stage.
Chesley was playing
his first tournament game with long time controls and fought out the game against
an experienced opponent.
