Wimbledon A v Richmond A 5-11-18

Firework night saw another visit to Wimbledon, this time to face the mighty Wimbledon A. There weren’t too many fireworks, but we came close to a result thanks, as usual, to Gavin and Mike on the top two boards.

Wimbledon A Richmond A
1 Marcus Osborne 197 0:1  Gavin Wall 222
2 Ivar Chavannes 198 0:1 Mike Healey 205
3 Robin Haldane 191 ½:½ Chris White 167
4 Russell Picot 193 1:0 Richard James 170
5 Mark Dubey 176 1:0 Bertie Barlow 161
6 Phil Gregory 175 1:0 Ian McLeod 154
7 Tony Hughes 171 ½:½ Max Wood-Robinson –
8 Nick Keene 165 1:0 Sampson Low 157
5:3

In the adjourned game on board 6, Ian is a pawn down, with good drawing chances but, sadly for us, no winning chances.

Update: Wimbledon won the adjournment on B6, so win the match 5-3.
