Report
A very
disappointing day and weekend.
Our
opponents massively outgraded us, although we certainly didn't deserve
the final result, which had no reflection on our performance. We
feel that some of our opponents results were extremely lucky, especially
on boards 2 & 4., who's wins were rather suspicious to say the
least.
Tyson
took top board and happily took Britton on in the main line Nadjorf
when a very complex game ensued. Black played energetically and
attempted to make the break through the center and eventually managed
to gain a slight but positive pull.
Tyson
seeing the desperate position of the team, made an attempt to complicate
matters by a temporary piece sack, but Britton promptly returned
it exposing the white king as much as the black one.
Black
had to be cautious and eventually entered into an end-game effectively
a pawn down after missing a tactical shot that would have won the
game.
In
serious time trouble, black offered the draw which Tyson was happy
enough to take.
On
board 2. Chris built up solidly against the unambitious Colle system
and got an effective blockading f5 in, thereby stopping his opponent's
attacking intentions flat. White, sat in an inferior position, thought
for a while and resorted to the old grand-prix hack of g2-g4 in
front of the castled king to keep the attack going.
Chris
became complacent an offered a pawn sack in the center to try to
punish white for his cheeky play. However, he tried too hard to
exploit white's weaknesses and allowed a tactical shot at his own
king, accepting a piece sack immediately without chucking in a winning
Zwischenzug.
White
managed to get the exposed black king running and finished off with
a couple of tricky tactics.
On
board 3. Bill Armstrong got himself bogged down and allowed his
opponent to get some awkward pressure against a backward A pawn,
that proved eventually very weak. Bill put his pawns on dark squares
effectively blockading his own bishop and thereby making an end-game
weak for him. He lost tempo in the opening by playing c2-c3 and
then c3-c4 to break out, but black had already managed to build
up a strong advantage.
After
tripling up on the A file, black eventually got tactical along the
6th rank and finished off with a nice exchange sack picking up a
few pawns in the process.
Steve
Hilton took on the Nadjorf on board 4. and got an extremely comfortable
position out of the opening. he got complicated in the opening and
white tried to exploit black's centralized king by sacking a piece
for the central pawn shield. the sack isn't strong though and white
simply gave up a piece for two pawns. Black fended off the attack
but got paranoid about defending a weak c pawn, allowing an outside
a pawn too become stronger than it should have ever been.
Steve
pushed around with his queen achieving not very much and allowed
the A pawn to run and once it got to the 6th rank, it became deadly.
A few
simple tactics by white and the a pawn sealed the win.
David
hodgkins set up solidly against the centre counter but went for
a simple but ineffective tactic, losing a pawn for nothing. Black
simply converted the pawn in the pursuing middle-game and end-game
without too much difficulty.
Rob
Williams took on the main line Nadjorf as black and managed to get
himself a decent position out of the opening. Unfortunately, his
rook placement wasn't truly accurate and he allowed white to build
up on the king-side. Trying to push for the advantage, rob put his
pawns on weak squares, targets to white's only bishop. White found
a neat little trap that forced the exchange of queen's. Once the
queens came off, the rounding up of all the loose black pawns was
easy for white and he converted clinically and coolly.
5.5-0.5
isn't a true reflection of the standards of games or on our performance.
unfortunate we certainly were, but we reckon this is a weekend that
you will get one out of every year, and this is the one that you
should forget as quickly as possible.
