#617 Kenilworth Championship - Round 2

TD Geoff McAuliffe & unrated junior Braden Reinoso late-joined. The latter will, however, just be a fill.

2nd round synopsis, pairings & results:

• Two of the top 4 seeds were upset, as Mark Kernighan lost a big lead vs. Richard Lewis & Mark Schwarcz fell to Glen Hart.
• Ian Mangion got a big gift as I tricked myself into a loss, from an equal position.
• Joe Renna came from way behind to beat Dan Komunicky & Ted Mann did the same versus Jim Cole.
• Newcomer Reinoso played well against Lou Stuniolo for 27 moves but then went down quickly.
• Don Carrelli, Arthur Macaspac & Mike Wojcio also won.
