Part 2: Young Ciku v. Old Fxxt @Shah Alam!

( Syed Restaurant Shah Alam....hangout since NCUK days )


John has been a good friend of mine since A-Levels days in Damansara Utama. Together with Salleh....now Assoc.Prof. Dr in UKM and Nico from Kelantan...now an Investment Banker, they were often seen playing chess in the 51C dorm.On and off I would watch them play as they were playing close to my bed.
When the cHEss pIRATE heard that Uncle John is coming up for a court case in Shah Alam, he obviously wanted a rematch.
Note: Part 1 of their encounter in JB last year, Read HERE

They played 7games of 5-minutes Blitz over Dinner
After a few games at Syed Restaurant located in Section 3 Shah Alam, the final score was 5-2 in the cHEss pIRATE's favour.

It was a good couple of games for the CP to prepare for the upcoming events this weekend i.e. 3rd MBPJ Open & 2nd The Summit Juniors Open.

a ROUND with UNCLE JOHN.

Friday UPDATE: After being treated for dinner by Pak Long Akbar at Zorro Cafe, nearby the ZON at Stulang...the cHEss pIRATE was feeling cocky and asked Pak Long to drop by at AmanSari for a game. If not for the traffic crawl at Jln.Wong Ah Fook, the game would probably have taken place. Alas,...it was not to be, YET!

>>>>>>>

hAnA and the cHEss pIRATE are in JB for the raya holidays to visit their uncles and relatives.

After telling them of the game I saw Uncle John aka Faizal playing against one of his opponent during A-level days in the dormitory of 51C-DU where the opponent disrupted the game by "felling the chess pieces" both of them wanted a "piece of Uncle John".

cHEss pIRATe played 1 game at Menara Landmarks and another game at Amansari whilst hAnA played 1 game against Uncle John at Amansari.

Cheers Mate.

PS: Used to play long distance against Uncle John....perhaps need to recommence the Game.
