Re: Scarborough Live Games
Round 4. Thestrup-Woodcock. White playing a nice ending and should win (move 41).

Re: Scarborough Live Games
Some interesting live games. Walker-Rayner game particularly fascinating, Round 5.

I haven't seen the 2.Nh3 before, but he certainly made it work.

He developed a piece?! That's quite unusual for Mike...

Re: Scarborough Live Games
I assume that Black won in Clark vs Thestrup despite what the pgn says?

Re: Scarborough Live Games
Black certainly has a winning position. I don't think he would have resigned, having seen the Bishop sac. on e1. Maybe they put the king on the wrong centre square on the live board at the end. That seems to happen quite a lot.

Re: Scarborough Live Games
Looking at the prize winners list, it appears that the result was corrected and Thestrup did indeed win.
