Grantham 2 won their latest match against Gambit 2 at home. Chris Cumbers was slightly worse when he dropped a piece. Trevor
Palmer defended solidly all game. Kevin McCarthy took advantage when John Tassi mad a mistake, lost a bishop
for two pawns and was eventually ground down. Ivan David played 1...g6 to Drag Sudar's 1.e4. Drag developed a very nice position with his Rook on e6 and his pawn still on e7. He then sacrificed a bishop for 3 pawns giving him the 'abcd' file pawns against open space. By his own admission, Drag made some very poor moves and Ivan David cruised to
victory.
