Scottish Championship 2006

  This year’s Scottish Chess Championships, held in Oban High School from the 2^nd to 10^th July, were dedicated to the memory of Oban businessman Alan Murphy who passed away in late November last year.  As well as being known locally as an electrician Alan was a well respected personality on the chess circuit and is sadly missed.

  In total the event attracted just under 120 players and their families to Oban. Whilst most of the players came from Scotland there were a number from England and a few from the continent.  Scottish Chess, the national body who along with Duncan Campbell of Oban Chess Club organised the event, are grateful to the Caledonian Hotel for providing some financial assistance.

  Due to financial constraints the Championship itself did not have the strength of entry of last year.  It did however still manage to attract four IMs.

  The event was won comfortably by Jacob Aagaard with a score of 8/9.  However, Jacob does not yet satisfy the residential requirements necessary to win the title.  The competition for the title between the other entrants was very much a battle of youth over experience.

By the end of round 3 Jacob was still on full points a ½ point ahead of Craig Pritchett and Daniel McGowan.  By defeating Daniel in round 4 Jacob gained a full point lead with Craig being his nearest rival.  The round five struggle between the two saw Craig miss the drawing line to be joined in the lead for the Championship by Jonathan Grant and Daniel again.

Round 6 saw Dougie Bryson reach board one only to lose to Jacob and with Daniel losing to Jonathan and Craig to Andy Muir, Grant was now the sole leader of the Championship.  Dougie’s stay at board one was short lived and was followed by a visit to bottom board for round 7!  Andy’s fine run of form continued as he defeated Jacob and was now a serious contender on 4½ points. Jonathan and Craig both won to go to 5 and 4 points respectively.  In round 8 Aagaard returned to winning form but Jonathan opted for a draw with Graeme Kafka. Ed Spencer defeated Andy so only Craig got the full point of the leading contenders.

Going into the last round it was possible that there could be a five-way tie for the Championship. Andy secured a win to keep the pressure on the others and with Ed looking like he might claim another scalp the door was open for Craig to win the title.  Craig duly won against Jim Stevenson leaving Jonathan fighting on against Ed.  Eventually Ed’s pawns were too strong and Jonathan resigned making Craig Pritchett the 2005 Scottish Chess Champion.  Craig had previously won the title in 1977 when the event had been held in Glasgow. The computer shadowing the event produced the amazing last round pairing of McGowan v McGowan.  It then insisted that Macdonald should either be withdrawn or given a bye (but it wasn't going to give it to him!). And finally it warned that McGowan was getting his third black in a row. Isn't modern technology wonderful!!

  The prizegiving for the event was held on Sunday evening and Alan Reid MP presented the prizes.  Until becoming an MP Alan was a very active chess player, reaching international standard, and still on occasion represents the local club in national competition. Alan actually competed for the Scottish title on several occasions and even played Craig Pritchett in the 1977 tournament.

Tournament Winner: Jacob Aagaard 8/9

Scottish Champion: Craig Pritchett 6/9

3rd= Jonathan Grant, Ed Spencer, Andy Muir 5.5/9.

There was an incident in this round when Andrew Burnett's phone went off.  On investigation it was discovered that he had switched the phone off in front of witnesses, including his opponent and that the noise was not someone calling but the phone switching itself on in his pocket.  For this reason the decision of the Congress Director was to allow the game to continue but to issue a very stern warning.  The game was quickly agreed drawn thereafter.
