Grandmaster Simul at the Chess Centre
|
Grandmaster Ian Rogers
GM Ian Rogers played 28 players in his simultaneous
exhibition at the chess centre last night (Wednesday 25 June). At one stage he
looked like he was in trouble in several games, but in the end
his only defeat was at the hands of Ed Hibbert (reputedly
with some assistance from a very close friend who shall remain
anonymous for fear of losing her WIM title). Jonas Muller
made a convincing draw. Ian showed that he is still very fit as
the simul lasted nearly four hours. Despite his recent
retirement, he also showed that he had lost little of his
playing strength. This was an impressive display by the living
legend.
