Hail the 2012 PCA MALAYSIA Day Chess Challenge U-7 Champion @the cHEss pIRATE AMIR FAIZ bin AMIRUL.
He's also the YOUNGEST Participant but due to him winning the "better prize", the Youngest Participant prize was awarded to someone else.

hAnA also did better than normal in the Open Category finishing 4th on 5points with the 2nd & 3rd Placed player but lost out on 1st Tie-Break BH. She was also the BEST GIRL/Female participant but since the 4th prize in the Open Category is deemed "more prestigious" by the Organisers, the Best Female Participant's prize went to another participant who secured 3points.

Whilst the creme de la creme of Malaysian Chess is fighting for the Country in Turkey, mere mortals like the cHEss pIRATE and hAnA would have to make do with a Non-Rated event to be held in Sri Hartamas tomorrow called the "MALAYSIA DAY CHESS CHALLENGE".

This would be the first event where I won't be with the kids at all due to some other previous engagements. Time for the mum to STEP-UP.

Instructions have been given. Let's see whether the Mum can execute, mainly:-
(1) To Slow Down his "thought process" the cHEss pIRATE is supposed to note his games.
(2) Pre-event practise matters I.e.Day b4 and on event date.

All the Best Kiddos.
