There is also a pub called "Forum" which stays open later

Good luck to both Mickey and Nigel for the playoff later on.

10...d5 wasn't Danny's 'improvement' on Breder-Bates. It was my 'improvement' played in Gormally-Bates, round 8 though!

I stand corrected
Recording at 645am is not really my cup of tea.

No worries - it's difficult to keep track of such hot theoretical debate
Apparently the game/move was also unfortunately omitted from Tom's pre-game preparation!

Around 7,500 unique visitors watched the live games yesterday so as always a hat tip to Dave Clayton who never really gets the credit he deserves!

Especially when his two computers that we were using for the commentary got nicked from the congress office sometime between the end of Rd 10 and the beginning of Rd 11.....

So is there a time for the play-off to start, or does it just depend on how long the prizegiving starts? (If so, can anybody make a reasonable estimate?)

The website says after prize giving, which should take about 40 minutes. So 10:00 to 10:30 seems a reasonable estimate.

Hmm. I have to be out then, but hopefully back for the second game, or some of it anyway.

If Dave puts the files in the right year folder that might help!
