Six of our travellers made the journey to Nottingham this weekend.
We had two players in the Open, two in the Major, one in the Inter and one in the Improvers.
Jamie pushed himself into the Open section and who should he draw in round one, no other than our club champion Harry.

Both played really well Harry was the victor.
Also winning their first round were Oskar, Tommy and Mal
Round Two was even better with 5 of the six players all receiving a point to their score. (Don’t tell anyone but Dave’s was a full point bye) ๐๐๐
Saturday is always a tough one as 3 games played in one day. With lots of players choosing a 1/2 point bye the room thinned out.
Round 3 Jamie and Mal had wins with Oskar having a good draw.
The games went to the bitter end, with a quick rush for a few of us to the Indian and more chess talk.
Mal was in the best position he has ever been with 3 out of 3,
Oskar was on 2.5, Harry and Tommy were in a good position with 2
The first round on Sunday went well Harry and Oskar both having wins.
Dave, Jamie and Tommy all gaining 1/2 point.
