I begin this blog after getting back into league chess following many years' absence due to work. My post-job status also means I am able to play more tournament chess. My new club in London is Battersea and my first game for them is on Thursday September 14, 2017. I start with a Fide rating of 1858, an ECF grade of 169 (=1968 elo) and an ICCF correspondence rating of 2267.
My current Fide is 2009, my ECF is 1955 and my ICCF is 2325.

MY score of +4=3-2 in the Seniors 50+ gained me 44.8 Fide elo.
I finished tied for fifth to 11th (fifth on tiebreak), winning 1,000 Czech crowns (just over £30).
Congratulations, Tim. Maybe I have also won something for sharing 5th-11th (9th). The regulations stipulate that they use Hort system for prize distribution. It seems that the prizes were higher than advertised 👍. We won’t get rich anyway 😅. Until next time, regards, Tomek
Thanks Tomasz. I actually won 500 crowns for coming fifth in the seniors and a further 500 - with a printed diploma! - for coming second among those qualifying as 65+.

ReplyDelete👍👍. So they quite rightly abandoned the idea of Hort system for 7 people sharing 500 crowns 😂
DeleteCertainly quite rightly as far as I am concerned
