Does Glenn Fear have some problems here? 13..Bxe2 14.Qxe2 h6 allows 15.Nxf7.
13..Bxe2 and anything else allows Qxe4-h4 and Bishop retreats allow Bc4.

Coming back to the crucial de Coverly-Mordue clash, Roger looks to be under a bit of pressure on the queenside.

Any news on the commentary? Technical issues or am I looking in the wrong place?

I thought white would better in the 'munch munch' line with Nxd8. Anyway white has gone a different way.

My mistake. Roger has drawn, a decent result given the disparity in ratings. But I'm not sure this game will bring the spectators rushing back to chess.Phil Neatherway wrote:Coming back to the crucial de Coverly-Mordue clash, Roger looks to be under a bit of pressure on the queenside.
Re: 2013 British Chess Championships (Torquay)
Judging by the comments on here I would say there are plenty of spectators - many of those not spectating are actually playing, and some might even be at work.
For the record I think I picked RdeC's game to be a draw, with most others going according to seeding.
