Event INFO
Players' LIST: U-12 & U-7
FINAL UPDATE:
hAnA
----
hAnA finished 10th in the U-12 Age Group (I.e. with 4 WINS & 2 Losses) out of 50 Participants.
Organiser's REPORT
After a 71days lay-off from competitive chess, hAnA gave a credible performance. My earlier assessment was that 50% would be a decent performance in lieu of the lay-off period and fortunately she played as per rankings and finished on 67%.
She defeated a higher rated player with a difference of 184 points but at the same time lost to a lower rated player with a difference of 152 rating points. Both players she'd lost to finished ahead of her i.e. at 3rd(Evan Loo) & 9th(Ryan Tey) respectively. In essence, she'd played true to rankings i.e. hAnA was seeded 10th and finished on 10th place as well!
She received an Achievement Certificate and RM20 in cash which brought her 2013 earnings to RM370 (20+25+25+250+30+20).
Well Done hAnA. Hopefully, your interest to play competitive chess is back for good!
cHEss pIRATE
------------
Amir Faiz Amirul aka The cHEss pIRATE,IF not for the one illegal move he made whilst playing Megat Imran had an almost Perfect competition and ended with a 100% record from 6 Straight Wins and in the process emerged Champion in the U-7 Age Group category. The category had 27 players competing initially but later whittled down to 24 players.
Organiser's REPORT
Though he was coming back from a 60 days lay-off, his decision to enter yesterday's U-12 category in the 3rd MBPJ Open 2013 paid-off as he never left Board 1. 3rd MBPJ Open 2013 REPORT. Am sure he'll claim the agreed upon toy(Planes&Trucks) reward soon enough!

This would be the first competition for hAnA after laying-off chess for 71days. So am just hoping for a "decent" performance from her in lieu of any pratice done recently! "Decent" for me from hAnA would be a 50% and above final results.
As for the cHEss pIRATE though its his first weekend in action after laying-off for 60days, theoretically he'd a rehearsal of sorts when he participated in the 3rd MBPJ Open, U-12 category yesterday.
Last year, he'd participated in the same event albeit a different category and finished 35th out of 61 players in the U-10 category. 1st THE SUMMIT Open 2012 RESULTS.
1st SUMMIT Open 2012 REPORT. This was also the event where he gave his first TV Interview...by virtue of being the Youngest Player in the event, REPORT
An added bonus is the fact that the Islamic Estate Planner will be bringing both of them as I've matters to attend to in KL & PJ.
