Thanks to everyone who played yesterday! I am grateful to Rob Hammond, Lance Leslie-Smith, Jo Wildman for running the tournament very efficiently.
Our final events for 2021 are on December 4th and then December 18th, and then we move into 2022 with three FIDE rated sections with cash prizes.
OPEN - Grandmaster Alexander Cherniaev won £100.00 with 5.5/6 and right behind him were IM Peter Large (£25.00), Peter Koiza (£25.00) and Frankie Badacsonyi (£50.00 rating prize), with 5/6.
Rating Prizes of £50.00 were also won by Wilfred Hill-Wood (4.5/6) and Kai Hanache (4/6).
Under 1450 - Frank Gillespie won a medal and a book for his excellent win in this section, the day after getting his Booster! He was joined on 5/6 by Michael Rae who I think was playing in his first tournament - congratulations!
If you are free during the week, I also run an event during the day at a pub called The Clissold Arms in Muswell Hill. Our next events are on Tuesday 30th November and December 14th. Join us here - https://muswellhillchess.blogspot.com/
