Analysis courtesy of Kevin Bonham:

After Frame and Bonham drew a good game ending in a messy rook ending with passed pawns on either side, Dowden led by half a point. The Bonham-Dowden game was quite a good one, with Bonham having the good fortune to lose the exchange, soon acquiring a massive attack which Dowden had to sacrifice a lot of things to get out of. In the end Bonham was queen for rook up but had to settle for a draw to avoid losing on time.

In the next round Dowden beat Frame easily and from that point on the two leaders won all their games. (Bonham was extremely lucky to beat Chadwick on time with only a few pawns left against a queen and a knight and pawns.)
In the final round Dowden offered Fry a draw after miscalculating but it was declined and Dowden went on to win the game! (KB's reaction: )

Stranger still the event saw a very successful outing for an opening known in the murky alleyways of chesschat as The Possum.
