This week’s matches witnessed a predictably heavy defeat for our TVB team against Kingston, and a narrow defeat in the Surrey League’s Centenary Trophy against South Norwood 2.

The TVB result:

1. Raghu Kamath (1885) 0:1 Peter Lalic (2244)
2. Ieuan Fenton (-) 0:1 David Maycock (2312)
3. Pablo Soriano (-) 0:1 David Rowson (2065)
4. Victor Bluett (-) 0:1 John Foley (2021)
5. Serhat Abay (-) 0:1 Alan Scrimgour (1961)
6. Christos Venetis (-) 0:1 Jon Eckert (1828)

The match was much closer than the final result suggested, with all the games being hard fought. Congratulations to Christos on making his debut for Richmond.

And the Centenary result:

1. Otto Weidner (-) ½:½ Ron Harris (1825)
2. Paul Evans (1563) 1:0 Ken Chamberlain (1660)
3. Levente Lencses (1525) 1:0 Barry Miles (1668)
4. Mike Robinson-Chui (-) 0:1 John Ganev (-)
5. Yann Sydow (-) 0:1 Ibrahim Abouchakra (1578)
6. Ron Bilkhu (-) 0:1 David Howes (1422)

Great results there for Otto, Paul and Levente. Well played!
