Grantham-2 played yesterday match out with an old rival - Gambit-2. Friendly environment, friendly and nice opponents, however, the match was tough as usually. Grantham players were over-graded on all boards but top one.

Gambit 2		3:2	Grantham 2
Sudar D	162	½:½	David I	164
Tassi J	153	1:0	Mason B	145
Roper K	155	0:1	Holt C	145
Edwards HR	149	½:½	Cumbers C	105
Gardner J	135	1:0	Scarborough J	77E

The only victory for Grantham team scored Chris Holt who overplayed his opponent in English Opening. Have a look at this game with annotations of Chris Holt himself.

Chris Cumber grabbed the half a point from HR Edwards who is rated almost 45 E.C.F points higher than Chris. I think that Chris deserves special recognition for his performance.

Drag Sudar gave me last time in Grantham hard time and you had already the pleasure to see a fragment of that game in my previous post.

This time the game was not that interesting, I missed certain chance, however, draw was a fair result.
