Another busy evening of social chess last night, with a couple of rated friendlies, alongside casual chess and the conclusion of the first round of the Rapid League.
The final standings for this round are below. Congratulations to Arun Mahtani for finishing top of the table!
Points towards the end of year total are as follows:
In each of the four rounds there will be 12 points for first, 11 for second, and so on down to 1 for 12th place. The next round will start on November 9th.
In the meantime, just a reminder that next week (October 26th) is a one-off special evening of bughouse chess!
