Victory of The Year
Weiqi weiqi weiqi, nothing but tis for tis entry tis time around.
"The MWA Tournament 2007 will be held on 21th Jan 2007 (Sunday), 10.00am - 6.00pm."
This was my 2nd time joining the club's tournament and it wasn't easy to play 4 games in 1 day with 4 similar ranked people.
Random match by drawing lots to see who u will play with.
Game 1 - Played with someone named Kelvin and he is more to a beginner and no handicap. Made some mistake at the beginning of my game n luckily i won with a better reading skill. No problem here, the game won when he resigned.
Next, up against those who won the 1st round and i get to play him.
Game 2 - Wynes was my 2nd player, this was a pretty long game I think coz the game was suppose to end before lunch time around 12:30pm roughly. So the president of the club decided to let us continue the game after lunch and put a timing to speed up our game so that the 3rd round can be started earlier. No problem here too as i pulled a huge lead in the middle game and i won the game roughly by 15 points.
3rd game and this is a very fun game indeed.
Game 3 - Played with Shi Yun (dunno how to spell his name), made a big mistake in the middle game n cost me 1/4 of the board (in normal condition that will guarantied a lost), but, luckily I killed 1/4 of the board of his group back ^-^ and i m back in the hunt again n towards the end he made a big mistake n allowed me to revived my 1/4 died groups and the game ends with him resigning after i secure all my groups.
Last battle, the strongest player of the day
Game 4 - He is quite young in age n looks and he is a secondary school kid. After learning for about 4 months, he is able to match my level at tis game. Again i made a big mistake at the beginning n mid game (beginning to feel its a problem for me) and had to unleash my secret tactic to at least secure my last chance of winning when it looks like i m on the losing end. With great effort, was able to secure my dying groups with minimal loses and secure barely enough to win the game. At the end i won by 5 points, a great battle indeed.
At the end of the day, I am glad that I joined tis tournament and very proud of playing weiqi. Certainly tis kind of game will ensure ones mind to be sharp and helps brain development if learned from a very young age.
Atm, looking forward to the future tournament challenge that will get me some overseas trip without paying anything by just going there to play weiqi with someone i dunno. Who says playing weiqi has no benefit ^-^
