The overlap with Sunningdale may not have helped even though Keith is playing both.

This is a disappointing entry for what looks like a very nice event.

[IM Jack Rudd]

It was a very nice event, and I for one would certainly play again.

[NickFaulks]

When I said the entry was disappointing, of course I meant quantity not quality. Hope nobody was offended.

Was the entry fee a deterrent? The organisers certainly cannot be accused of being greedy, given the prizes, but £100 is still a lot of money.

It was a very nice event, and I for one would certainly play again.

Are the final results published anywhere? The link I have only has up to round 6.

Darshan Kumaresan is on the List of Entrants. Is he related to GM Darshan Kumaran ?
