Sussex League (Division 1) 2025-26: Horsham 1 – Bexhill 2

A couple of Fridays ago, Horsham 1 were down in Bexhill to take on Bexhill 2. In the end we managed to win 3-1, with two wins and two draws. I contributed a draw on board three.

I had the White pieces and was up against James Lumsden. I managed to gain a clear advantage out of the opening, but used up too much time over my first 14 moves. This meant that I ended up with far too much time to play a complicated position. In the resulting time scramble, both players had their chances, but the game finally ended in a repetition as both sides didn’t want to take any further risks.

I give the game below with some notes.
