Suffolk 1st team goes top

On Sunday, Suffolk’s first team started this season’s EACU County Championship campaign. After a morning and afternoon of exciting county chess action at the Turner Hall in Newmarket, Suffolk managed to land in top spot of the league table on ‘Games’ count.

The match scores and individual results are now available on the East Anglian Chess Results website. Stephen Gregory, Robert Sanders and Zia Quader were the only players to win both their games.

The position below is from the game: Stephen Lewis v Brian Valentine. Can you see a forcing continuation that seals victory for White?
