The British Championships starts on Sunday. I can spot one of the top players on this site playing in the Championship itself, however he does not use his real name on this site (he's not one of the top players in the tournament).

There are always one or two relatively weak players in the Championships, but this year there are loads of them - there are several people I have beaten or drawn with recently (including GM Nick Pert, but that was in a simul a few weeks ago!).
David Tebb is playing in the Major Open, which is always a very hard fought tournament. One of the prizes is entry to the Championships the following year. The highest graded under 9 in the country, Peter Andreev, is playing in the Major Open as well. This is good news for my son as it means Peter won't be playing in the Under 9 Championship!
Is anyone else here playing in any of the events taking place in Liverpool?
