Matthew has gained more rating points and is heading for 2500, which is half the battleJonathan Rogers wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2024 4:15 pmNo norms gained today then but the pairings were not helpful. I mean - one would have to be a very strong GM already in order to expect to beat Ameet with Black.
Marcus crossed 2500 during the event, if he plays the right sort of events he can get the norms
We seem to have quite a few decent players at the moment
