Re: British Championship Thread
Storey v Hebden is interesting. Is that an opening of some sort? It certainly seems novel.

Summerscale looks lost.
How does he defend against the threat of ... R*h2, B*h2 Qh4?
If 25.h3 then Bxh3, gxh3 Qh4 looks terrible.
0-1

Re: British Championship Thread
I assume Black's idea after the rook sacrifice is just to wak the rook round a8-f8-f6-h6 then take on h2 and step aside with the queen...

Sugden-Greet's a funny one, I thought Greet was all over him but not any more.

The "Best Trinidadian" competition remains neck and neck, as Sheila Dines and I both won today to move up to 2 out of 5.
