You may want to put a hold on that prediction Paul. The Red Baron is in the building!!

**Pablito15** · 01-26-2012, 11:11 AM

prediction cancelled.

**Pablito15** · 01-26-2012, 01:09 PM

Nobody is likely to, but it's definitely not beyond Carl. The goat used to have a great record against Baron.. don't know what happened but I think the weekly allegro has swept Michael into some form. Sylvester, Justin and Ari outside chances too. Baron will need to be at his best to win with a picket fence

Round 1

The MCC Australia day weekender is under way with FM Michael Baron assuming the mantle of top seed. It looked like every board had a contest with some good fighting chess on display. MCC junior Finley Dale, fresh from his =3rd place finish in the U12s at the Australian junior, pushed FM Michael Baron for most of the game, only succumbing in a Queen and Knight versus queen and Bishop ending.

Here is the game.

There is an error in the move order somewhere, that's why the game is not displaying properly

**Firegoat7** · 01-26-2012, 09:15 PM

Hi Guys,

Will give a Round 2 report tomorrow. I just had a sick game game against Jack 'Hammer" Puccini, where I sacked a Queen for a worse position, only to reach a better rook ending, then get totally outplayed before scrambling a draw through sheer luck. Such is Life, but the kid did play well and at least I road tested the Alekhine.

cheers,

**The Seeing** · 01-26-2012, 09:25 PM
