BEAU CHESS - the post-work workings-out of a chess amateur

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 1954, my ECF is 1940 and my ICCF is 2331.

Summing Up Bregenz

MY score of +4=0-3 in the Bodensee Senioren at Bregenz, Austria, lost 6.4 Fide elo, and means I have extended my drawless streak to 22 games.

It was good to win the last game and reduce the damage.
Is your next tournament Bischofsgrun?

Bischofsgrün at the end of the month, but Munich before then. I'll be publishing my schedule tomorrow.
