Julian Mazur Memorial Round 2

Apologies for the long delay since the last update. I'll endeavour in the next few days to go back and publish all the results I've missed. Meanwhile, here are the current standings of the Julian Mazur Memorial. We're up to round 2 of an 8 round Swiss. Round 2 was much less interesting than round 1, which I missed for being up in Auckland. Round 1 had upsets aplenty, not least Fabian drawing with Anthony, but also Michael Nyberg losing to Nathan Hall, Paul He drawing with Edgar Benitez, and Sean Johnson beating Alexis Wevers. Daniel Kibblewhite could easily have beaten Bill Forster.

Round 2 had less of this sort of stuff, but Paul He did achieve another draw against another of the old guard (Andrew Brockway this time), and Alan Aldridge achieved a winning position against Russell Dive, even though he didn't manage to convert.

We don't get too many King's Gambits at the club. Here is one, kindly annotated by the winner, Bill Forster.
