The 2010 State Lightning Championship was played at the Moresby Street Centre, Kensington on the 12th of September. By WA standards, we had an excellent turnout for the WA Lightning Championship. Of the 30 players, 11 were Juniors, which is also good. Bozidar Mandic was pretty much always in the lead, finishing on 10 points, just drawing with Yita Choong and Frank Robson - a nice result for Frank. Yita was keeping pace with Bozidar until he lost to Tim Hare in Round 8, and Tom Donaldson finished well clear of the rest of the field in third place. One unusual thing happened. The Mukhedkar�s thought the tournament started at 1.00pm, as many of our tournaments do, and therefore missed the first 5 rounds. After winning 5 games in a row, Varun was leading the Junior U1500 group by a clear point. There was a certain amount of dissention because Varun had received an easy draw whilst he caught up to his rivals. I have heard of Swiss Gambits, but a 5-round Swiss Gambit must be unique! Anyway, a potentially ugly situation was avoided when Varun lost in the last round and he, George Carolin-Unkovich and Matthew Duke shared the prize. Incidentally, I must apologise to Matthew because, in the rush to sort out the prizes, I overlooked him. I wish to thank Gordon Dunlop, Rudy Williams, and others, for helping in the running of the tournament, Varad Mukhedkar for assisting in the prizegiving, and Casey Tay for helping me to put the cash into the envelopes.
