Club Rapid 2014 Ends - Ker Wins

Russell and Anthony went in to the final night of the Rapid neck and neck with 7 out of a possible 8. The smart money would have been for them both to win their last 2 games, but, in this case, the smart money was wrong. Russell inexplicably blundered away his queen in round 9 against Roger Perry, allowing Anthony to go into the lead.

There must have been something in the water on Thursday, because the number 3 seed also blundered away material in round 9, against me.

Apologies to Nic, I accidentally misplaced a couple of his pawns in my earlier version, which changes the analysis slightly, but not the end result:






Normality was restored in round 10, with the top 3 seeds all winning, Anthony absolutely crushing my French Defence.

Congratulations to Anthony, who seems to be winning everything in sight at the moment.
Great results especially for Roger Perry (8/10), Bob List (6/10 including wins against Layla, Mark Wilkins and Bruce Kay) and youngsters William Scarlett and Karthik Konakanchi (both 5/10)

Here are the results and final cross table
