Due to absences, no catch-up games in the A grade - Daniel Baider and Nic Croad were up in Auckland for the George Trundle event last week. Both players were a credit to our club - Nic got the prize for the highest placed New Zealander, and Daniel performed outstandingly against the visitors, with draws against GM Darryl Johansen and IM Andras Toth, and a win against IM Stephen Solomon. Solomon and Johansen tied for 1st place overall. For more details, please refer to Helen Milligan's excellent website at http://www.newzealandchess.co.nz/.
3 catch-up games in the B grade and 1 in the C grade. In the latter grade, Edmund Salem could only draw against Somesh Pattekar, so Blaise Drinkwater is guaranteed at least shared 1st place.
Full results:
