Arena 2/4/20

Thursday Arena

Only one of the two tournaments we planned was held on Thursday as most of the 24 eventual participants piled into Arena A.

The pairing was a little haphazard, with several of the top rated players failing to getting a match. Some people played the same opponent twice (or more?). One person probably accidently left the tournament and failed to re-join, waiting for a game invite that never came.

However, there were some quality games played considering the time controls. James Watson got the only draw against Simon, who was the eventual winner, here. Stephen Symons got the only half point that Arthur Koelle gave away in this game. Leonard took points from Patrick and Sean, propelling him into third place.
