Scottish Chess Championships 2013

[Graham Kerr]

...probably a board glitch, but there appears to be an illegal move on board 5 at move 35.
The boards have been much more reliable of late, suppose we could forgive them one glitch...

Brilliant Alex thanks.

[George Neave]

Very much looking looking forward to Bryson-Jones - surely fireworks! Hopefully one for the fans...

Certainly was an impressive game although not the result the home fans were looking for

[Andy Howie]

All of todays games are live. Putting links here as we get them up.

Boards 1-4
Boards 16-22
Boards 5-15, 23-27

Last link will not be live for about 15 minutes as I am setting it up!

[JMcNicoll]

Last link going to a 404, I presume problems?

[Graham Kerr]

3rd link still not yet live Andy

"...live for about 15 minutes..." Andy's eternal optimism.

As I had only just finished wiring them a couple of minutes before the start of play and the laptop was still in the bag, I, in a more realistic mode, would have said none of those boards would be live today.

However, the good news is Andy is recording them, but he is having problems trying to identify which boards are which and thus match names to them. After working all morning,sometimes you just need a break, so he is doing a bit of arbiting!!!
