HA2 & HA1 at Home 7.12.10

It was an evening of draws on Tuesday (7 out of 9). With Ray (for HA2) and Mike C (for HA1) winning the decisive games for both home teams. Ray was material up from an early stage, but faced some tactical threats. Mike was a pawn up, but time down when his opponent made a slip losing his last remaining piece.
