The South of the River Allegro and Blitz wrapped up on the last Thursday in August with the eleven rounds of blitz. The format of the tournament was eight rounds of allegro followed by eleven rounds of blitz played over three evenings. The allegro games scored two points for a win and one point for a draw. The blitz games scored one point for a win and half a point for a draw. Saminda De Vas scored what turned out to be a critical win against Edward Calado in the allegro and took a three point lead in to the blitz evening. Despite Edward sweeping the blitz 10-0 and coming to within a point of Saminda with a few rounds to go, Saminda held his nerve and took out the title. Congratulations to Saminda and all players for three fun evenings of rapid chess. Report kindly provided by the organiser Ian McAteer. |
