Well viewers, as you can see the board is delicately balanced; in a series of clumsy, but effective moves the Senate crew, playing in white shirts have managed to block the power play of the Combined Bureau team, playing today in their world famous grey with yellow stripes uniform.
Despite being overwhelmed by superior numbers, the Senate crew appear to have at least neutralised, if not taken the 'Crats Psycho Bishop out of play . It's doubtful that the PB will take any further meaningful part in this championship grudge match.
This of course puts the 'Crats Beaker Bishop in a weak but playable position, this can be seen by the tentative last forward movement, more bluff than puff - but this may test the White team ingenuity. If the BB is taken out that only leaves two sacrificial pieces, the Black Knight with no name and Commodey Castle between the Whites and the 'Crat Rat King. Stay tuned for an update on the by plays, now a word from our sponsor which will disappear if you log in.
