I lost the toss so GLC were white on odds. Tim Pelling requested that club champion play on b 1.
Result: 4-4
Ray Brooks had a quick draw. I omitted a crucial move in a theoretical position and was soon lost. Robert lost from a better position. Eric made a hard fought draw. Mason had a good win and Steve upheld our honour winning with 2 bishops v Rook with some pawns on the board. Dan had the most interesting game eventually he offered the draw when no progress could be made.
According to the August issue of Chess Erica Orsagova (Daniel's opponent on Sunday who had the better of a draw) has a Fide rating of 2203 and at the recent Big Slick IM group tournament scored 4.5/9 with a rating performance of 2244.
