As reported elsewhere, Horsham lost to the Args in the Mid-Sussex League Knockout last Tuesday as they failed to overcome their grading handicap. My game against Peter Farr ultimately ended up in a win for me, but there was plenty of “coffee house chess” in-between to keep the spectators entertained! I think my 24th was a serious mistake, with Peter missing his chance on move 25, while just after the time control, he missed a deflection that would have given him better defensive chances.
I give the game below with some notes.
