Re: Scottish Championship
He's going to run into the same problem at the British with his first round opponent likely to be a low rated IM. He might get a break later like Adams at Sheffield, if the acceleration allows a bottom half player to sneak into a leading score after three rounds. Otherwise, as top seed, he's always likely to get the toughest opposition as David Howell did at Torquay 2009 when Gawain was the second seed.Mick Norris wrote:Gawain's view, including pairing criticism
