The results of the preliminaries of the Belgian championship:

In the first round there were two surprising results, with Daniel French (6k) winning against Kristof Bossee (1d) and Kenny Debacq (7k) against Michael Meeschaert (1k).

After the first day there was only one player with no lost games, Lucas Neirynck, who finished the entire tournament without losing a single game.
The first three places were certain after 6 rounds, but the last round was still exciting to determine fourth and fifth place. Only when the final game finished (Kristof Bossee won by just half a point from Dr. Wong Chi Yiu), were the reduced SOS, SOS and SODOS clear enough to determine the people who placed themselves for the finals.

Dear Go friends,

this week the fourth round of interclub was played (except for the games between Pantin and Leuven, as Pantin was not able to send a team to Leuven and lost by forfait).

This leads to exciting new results, as we have a new top:
Namur has taken the lead with 11 points, leaving the rest far behind. Leuven became second with 8 points (and 23 weighted points), before Antwerpen and Pantin who share third place with also 8 points but only 19 weighted points. Gent has 7 points, Le Chaff 6.

With one more round to play, nothing is certain yet ...

After the third round of interclub season 2008, we have the following exciting results:
Antwerpen and Pantin are leading with an ex aequo of 8 points (and 19 weighted points). They are followed by Namur (with seven points) and Le Chaff with 5 points. Leuven and Gent carry the proverbial red lantern together with 4 points (and 13 weighted points) each.
With two more rounds to play, any club can still win.

From this year on, the winning club of the season will be awarded a "wisselbeker / coupe de challenge" !

BelgoNet 18 is now available in the member section.

Enjoy!
