A Rapid Break

Taking advantage of a gap between other online events, there was a one-day rapidplay tournament played on Tuesday 9th February. Aberystyth's Rudy van Kemenade was the winner with 5/5, with Adam Watkin-Jones second on 4/5, beating Steynton's Scott Hammett on tiebreak. Of the other Aber players, Tom Gunn and I scored 3 and Sam Holman scored 2. The event was great fun - thanks to David Pinch for organizing it. Here are the games of the Aber players.
