BSCC LATEST RESULT

The result of last night`s game with Groomsport was;


Groomsport 3 BSCC 2

Even tho they lost BSCC seem certain now to be in Div 1 come the 2 way split by gaining 2 valuable points. Groomsport led 2.5 to 1.5 with the final game to finish and David Ruben needed to win v P.McLoughlin to tie the match. Although he couldnt get the win,a draw was very welcome for David to end a long losing run.

Bd1 A.Mc Connell 0.5 G.Mc Cormick 0.5,,

Bd3 W.McGratten 1 N.Green 0,,

NAJDORF NEWS

Danny King has a youtube channel focussing on the Najdorf defence.  Lots of good instruction for free. Looks like he is bringing out a DVD on the subject which I will be looking forward to.

Here is the first lecture in the series.

STUDY POSITION 8

This is from a game between Neil and myself on Monday night. I am white. It is black to move. What is the best way for black to proceed?
In reality what happened is, I offered a draw as I was quickly becoming drowsy due to the side effects of medication! lol
