Re: Staffordshire County Cup Finals
I take it white's final Kd4 in Collins-Acey didn't actually happen, and this is just the kings' being put in the centre to indicate resignation?

I believe so Jack, everyone finished within minutes of each other guess the king must have wound up there.IM Jack Rudd wrote:I take it white's final Kd4 in Collins-Acey didn't actually happen, and this is just the kings' being put in the centre to indicate resignation?

Re: Staffordshire County Cup Finals
I think there were a few (many?) moves by both sides that weren't the best. I've still no idea why i didn't play 49...Kb5, 30...Qc6 and I suspect that going for the rook ending may not have been best had he played 37 Rd6-b6.Carl Hibbard wrote:23.
