Turning the table - 3 years ago
Game was played on 18 May 2008
We are both 3/3 and I was black. After the game I just couldn't believe what happened. We talk at the outside with my opponent and broke into laugh because we both blur.
Don't give up. Play your best :) don't give your opponent an easy win!

Kaamatan Open 2010 - R6
Blast From The Past
After 5 round, I found myself paired against Indonesian Akhmad Wadudi in the Round 6 of Kaamatan Open 2010. We are both 4.5/5 on table 2, while on table 1, its a battle against 2 monsters Al-Kamil (4.5) and Masrin Erowan (5) which ended in a draw.
I'm entering the 42nd move with less than 5 minutes, and after leading a piece, I blundered it later on. I'm on my way to win the but again, blundered a piece AGAIN for a TACTICAL DRAW shot. The last position was like this.

I am up 40 sec while my opponent was 13 sec left. My opponent offered a draw and I accepted. I'm not dissapointed because he blundered easily, but I didn't play smart. It's a fair result :)
