Brian Burgess brian.burgess@ns.sympatico.ca reports:

'Not much to tell really. It was held courtesy of Rex Naugler at Rex's home overlooking Fancy Lake.

As the score shows, Glenn whipped the three of us.

I swindled a draw out of Rex and after chasing Brian Pentz's king around the board to no avail, I had to take a draw by repetition. Playing a Modern against Glen, I managed to scramble through the time control a pawn down and Glen quickly demonstrated why he is just under 2200 and I am just over 1800.

Thanks to Rex for hosting the event...you couldn't ask for a better venue.....Brian Burgess
