26th September 2022

	White			Black
1	Isaac Boyd		0 - 1	Charles Gunn-Russell	1718
2	Euan McDiarmid	1519	0 - 1	Eric P Smith	1601
3	Patrick Miller	1413	1 - 0	Mathew Boyd
4	João Reis		0 - 1	Allan McDiarmid	1732

Patrick played the Kings Gambit against Mathew, gaining the upper hand but not as decisively as it perhaps should have been. In the end he narrowly avoided simplification down to having to checkmate with king and bishop and knight versus king!

New member João put up a good fight against Allan.

Isaac and Charles played a Nimzo Indian defence where white may have been better to play 7. Qd4 to delay black capturing back one of the tripled pawns.
