Club Championship week 5

After 11 moves against Anthony Ker I looked over at Russell Dive's game against Ross Jackson and was interested to note that I had adopted almost exactly the same setup as he. Indeed, I ended up with quite a promising position, before it all went horribly wrong. Both 2007 club champions kept their 100% records, Brian Nijman defeating Daniel Baider rather more quickly than the latter is used to these days.
In the B grade all three games that were played ended in draws. Thus Martin Hill lost his 100% record, but is still easily in the lead, With Alan Aldridge once again not playing.
In group C, the favourite Paul Bowden drew level with the leader Blaise Drinkwater, with a draw against Edmund Salem. Blaise dropped a full point to John Marney.

Full results:

A grade
Dive 1 Jackson 0
Sellen 0 Ker 1
Marner 0 Croad 1
Nijman 1 Baider 0

Hill 1/2 Forster 1/2
Brockway 1/2 Hewson 1/2
