GM John Emms Plays ACES Sevenoaks children in Simul!
GM John Emms kindly took on the
children of ACES Sevenoaks playing them in simultaneous exhibition on Thursday
29th January and Thursday 5th February 2015. The children
fought bravely, but the fast moving GM emerged victorious winning 27 games and
drawing just the one - against Kiran Shiatis KCM (aged 11). Special mention must also go to the following:
Charlie Metcalfe KCM, Isaac Handley and Oliver Dobson (for playing strong games), Iris
Davies (winning a rook), William Gough (clever tactic), Marius Kobler
(defending well against a tactic).
A big well done to everyone and many
apologies for not having the camera with us for week one.
A very big thank you to GM John Emms who was particularly impressed with how well all the children put their chess skills into practice.
