Our second visit to Bournemouth this season, facing the D team this time. Again, our grades were higher on all boards but the results told a different story.
Board 2 was first to finish with a draw being agreed. Stuart mentioned post-match that he felt his time was low and that Andrew had something building with significantly more time on the clock. So when the draw was offered by Andrew, he felt it was probably wise to accept. Board 1, again another draw. I had a brief look at the end game and both sides seemed equal with no definitive way through for either.
Board 4, John opened his King side a bit too much, which Simon happily exploited, beginning with the loss of John's G pawn. A pinned knight, helped lead to Simon’s eventual win.
To be honest I didn’t get a really good look at the other games, as I was too engrossed in my own on board 3. It went down to the line, rook and pawn end game, although we both had missed opportunities throughout the game. I think we can both say we mistimed our attacks, had pawns on the seventh rank that we didn't convert and at points we did play some great chess.
Thanks to Bournemouth, see you in Merley for the re-match.
