Robin, I will be around for rounds 4-9 and will be on call for general training, going over games etc, Glorney players will get priority if they have particular needs.

I was looking at the entry form and entrants. I don't know the exact dates folks entered but there are 39 entrants, nine of which have free entry as they are titled leaving 30 others. If each of those others paid £60 each to enter that comes to £1800 total entry fees (there will be some that have paid more than that I guess plus juniors who have paid less). The prize money alone for this event is over £5000 with additional costs for venue and equipment hire, expenses etc. How is the outstanding balance going to be met?

Some interesting pairings today. Boards 1 and 2 look like potential upsets and board 12 features ‘to be arranged’ against Stuart White (who won his first game).

As for today's games. Really felt for Tai Wilson. A really good performance against someone graded 1000 points plus more than him! Chess24 had him +8 at one point!

Favourite moment had to be Alan Tate's game, King walks are always special Big Grin
