JOHANSEN-SPECK 2002 AUST CHAMP PLAYOFF
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This long-awaited match has finally found a home, after the ACF have accepted
former president Graeme Gardiner's proposal to host the match at his new
Gardiner Chess Centre on the Gold Coast.
Darryl Johansen and Nick Speck topped the results at the Australian
Championship held in Melbourne in January 2002.
The playoff will be held Tuesday-Friday, September 23-26, commencing 6pm daily
at the Gardiner Chess Centre: 11 Hardys Road Mudgeeraba, Gold Coast,
Queensland.
Time Controls will be the same as for the original event: 90 mins a side plus 60 secs a
move from move one (Fischer). (Play off required at shorter time controls if
2-2 tie).
The winner will receive $1200 and the runner-up $800.
Graeme plans to relay the games live to the internet and have GM Ian Rogers
provide live analysis of the games in the cafe at the centre.
The Chess Association of Queensland and the Gold Coast Chess Club have both
agreed to make generous contributions to the cost of running this important
event. Darryl Johansen and Nick Speck have both generously agreed to play in
local Grand Prix events to facilitate this bid. And Chess Victoria has also generously
agreed to assist the event financially.
The dates fit in nicely with local Grand Prix events and the inaugural
Australian Clubs Teams Championships.

MINGARA FIRST AND SECOND IN CENTRAL COAST TEAMS COMP
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mingara "B" has won the Central Coast Teams Tournament 2003 with 15 points
from a possible 24. Mingara "A" took second place with 14 points: they managed
to overtake Toukley by getting a 4:0 white wash of Gosford C in the last round.
Toukley finished third with 13 points. The close finish shows the ratings cap of
6000 points has produced teams that can compete at a similar standard from
all the clubs. The best individual performances were by Sead Krajina (Mingara "B")
with 5.5/6, Gary Losh (Toukley / Mingara "B") with 5.5/7 and Rosa Pritchard (Mingara
"A") with 4/5. The biggest upset win of the tournament was Les Porter's defeat of
Val Velyvis a rating difference of 247 points. Well done Les.
There should be photos of the winning team on the Mingara Chess Club Website
next Tuesday: http://www.users.bigpond.com/murrell/

(It's about time the mighty Latvian Gambit is getting a bit of recognition! I've played the Latvian
quite a bit, because (a) I find the idea, prevalent in Karpov's day, that one ought to win with White
but try to draw with Black *profoundly offensive*; (b) the idea that Black can get away with playing
"the King's Gambit a tempo down" proves that the world is truly a wonderful place; and (c) It makes
for very interesting games. - Ed)
