Nick scored the decisive point over his very strong opponent to give the B team a good victory over Northampton. He has annotated the game which is well worth a look.
Thoughts from the other boards:-
- Alex appeared to have an edge but “lost a pawn & was ground down”.
- Richard “was struggling out of the opening but found a good cheapo winning 2 pawns & swapped off the queens into a winning ending”.
- Too many pawns seemed to deny Chris progress in an even game.
- Joe had a convincing win on board 5.
