Out of the blue, CP informed me that he wanted to play in the Open event in the 2016 MMU Open instead of the U12 or even U18 categories. This, with the full knowledge of there being no special prizes for primary students unlike the recent 6th PJ Open. Thus, without any hesitations I registered him for the event.
MMU Open 2016 - Results of Open Event.
His 2nd Open event for 2016 netted CP 4 points in 7 rounds, nothing to shout about but at least it's above 50%. Some 'consistency' is there as this is his second 4-pointer in Open events. Hence, with a scientifically 'inappropriate' sample of 2 events, a benchmark of sorts have been established i.e. the expectations or KPI for CP is 4 points in an Open event with 7 rounds played (at the very least in Stonemaster's events).
Just as important if not more is the realisation that his 'tricks' do not work against older opponents. Hopefully, this realisation would spur CP to work harder in his game. A deal of sorts have also been struck for Faiz to play in Open events.
