There was an unusually high number of draws in round 5 of the Summer Cup, but also some significant decisive results. The biggest upset was when Andrew Brockway beat Arthur Pomeroy in only 17 moves with the black pieces. Arthur made a one-move blunder of the exchange and resigned immediately.
There was a fascinating tie on board 2, Croad v Timergazi, which for a while seemed to be heading in the same direction as Croad-Timergazi Summer Cup 2016 (which Layla spectacularly won). Nic quickly got the upper hand over Layla, before letting the advantage dissipate with an incorrect plan. Then it was Layla's turn to rule supreme on the opposite corner of the board before she too missed her chance, leaving Nic to prevail with a nice tactical flourish at the end.
Many thanks to Matthew Proctor for annotating his loss to Peter Stoeveken. I always look forward to his submissions, because they are so beautifully written!
Here are the results, crosstable and an early version of round 6.
