Round 6

White Black
1 Mathew Boyd (½) 1255 1 - 0 Tommy Li (0)

University of the Third Age (U3A) Friendlies

We welcomed six players from the U3A chess group that Stuart McKinney leads to the chess club and a number of friendly games were played.

I played two interesting games against Bill which were both close coming out of the opening but some minor tactics in both games proved decisive.

Gerry had two good games against Philip just edging the first game in a complicated major piece middle game. And then narrowly drawing the second game in a king and knight ending that he should have lost!

Did not see the other games but hopefully everyone enjoyed their games.
