Paul Talsma (199) was on board 1 for the Weald of Kent

New Player added, please make sure in future players are listed BEFORE they play. Clubs can register players to the LMS, it does not need the tournament secretary or LMS admin to do this

Rainham board 3 made repeated illegal moves into check, including one at very end of game whilst material down and in serious time trouble. Opponent took his King and Rainham Board 3 lost on time before King was replaced. An argument was raised that WOK player picking up King impeded Rainham player in securing draw.
RULING - Plan to secure draw by Rainham player was clearly flawed if included repeated illegal move(s). Win for WOK player but admonishment for WOK player for picking up opponent King.
