round notes
Bruno looks assured - but don't forget that deferred game (which was marked as a draw) - so either he or Jeff could be a half point less or more.
Second place is also open till the last round - "it aint over till it's over".
We observed some fine endgames, Gary-Jeff in particular.
I would tell you more except I soon left after 10 quite alright moves , one catastrophic and a strong resignation on move 13 (a forty minute game tho).
A couple of games due to be annotated and posted : Jeff-Peter and Gary-Jeff.
I realise that I haven't mentioned the prizes - 1st and 2nd and 2 performance awards - unrated players havinmg a rating estimate based on their 1st 3 round - as usual prizes are handed out at the Christmas party.
