Robin Haldane (Streatham) v David Maycock (Kingston)

Kingston v Streatham, Surrey League division 2, Willoughby Arms, Kingston, 31 January 2022

The experienced league player Robin Haldane and the up-and-coming David Maycock met on board 2 of the Kingston v Streatham match.

Had it continued, 33.Re1 Rxg2 34.Qxg2 Bxg2+ 35.Kxg2 Qd5+ 36.Kg3 Qxc5 Black’s extra pawns guarantee a win. A victory for youth over experience.
