Well done to Alastair, David and Paul on their wins. David won his game with a Queen sacrifice. Paul’s win was against a higher rated opponent. Jagat was up an exchange (a knight for a rook) but lost the advantage later (giving up his rook for a bishop). Both Jagat and Trevor drew their games. Tony was up against a stronger opponent. He lost on time.
