Fish n'chips friday

Thank you to everyone who played in tonight's tournament.  We had 19 players which is the most so far, so thanks to all for playing.

This week, congratulations go to rafcalum who has won this event for the first time, winning a decider against RowanTree - very well played.

Game of the Week

This week, Game of the Week is this one between rafcalum and LeftGroovyUnicorn.  As a new member of the SJC club on ChessKid, LeftGroovyUnicorn got off to a flying start in this game, but rafcalum showed the value of hanging on in chess, coming back at the end to save a draw - well played to both.  ChessKid members can view the game here - https://www.chesskid.com/fastchess/game/23920162
