The Bristol Winter Congress took place at the Bristol Grammar School in the heart of Bristol Nov 27th-29th. There were 82 players in 3 sections. The weather was not cooperative but the local Wetherspoons provided some consolation.
Upcoming dates for Bristol Congresses at the same venue- Feb 26th, June 4th, Aug 28th..
FIDE Open.
The Open attracted 32 players, with 6 players graded 2150+.
Not surprisingly, the Open was once again won by GM Keith Arkell. With 200-300 point gap over his opponents, it was expected that he would win comfortably.
But the real battle was for second place with no fewer than 7 players tying on 3.5. This included Dan Malkiel, a new player to Bristol fresh from America, David Graham who travelled up from Worthing with his 2 children also in the Open and Javier Ruano Marco who drew with GM Arkell in the last round.
