Event INFO

CONGRATULATIONS to Amir Faiz bin Amirul aka The self-proclaimed cHEss pIRATE (Read HERE) for adding a THIRD title to his name I.e. SStwo MALL CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP 2013 - CHAMPION, U-12 Age Group Category. In a round robin event, He won all 6 Games and finished the event with a Perfect Score of 6 Wins. Coming from the 3rd MBPJ Open on 29th June where he won the last 2 games and 2nd THE SUMMIT JUNIORS Open held on 30th June where he won all 6 games, he's currently on a 14-games winning streak.

He won his first title last year in the 2012 Malaysia Day Chess Challenge organised by Polgar Chess Academy in Sri Hartamas, Kuala Lumpur (2012 Malaysia Day Challenge Event REPORT & REPORT 2). A second title was earned in another shopping mall, 3 weeks back i.e. at the 2nd THE SUMMIT JUNIORS Open 2013, U-7 category (Report HERE).

Well, actually this should have been his 4th title BUT...Read HERE & HERE2!

CONGRATULATIONS Amir Faiz @ The cHEss pIRATE...May Your 14-Games Winning Streak Continues, InsyALLAH.

SStwo Mall Chess Championship, Registered

Event INFO

Amir Faiz won the event with 6 wins from 6 games. Report HERE

The venue was good since it's a new mall and the crowds are not in yet since there are still many empty shop lots. Hence, there were not many "disturbances".

Arriving around 8.30-8.45AM, the organiser had almost finished setting-up the playing area. I was thinking that there would be a huge turnout since there were a dearth of competitions for the month of Ramadhan. However, the turnout for the U-12 category was disappointing at best. Perhaps, the fact that a lot of schools are having replacement classes due to the previous haze closure is the main reason....coupled with it being the fasting month, there were only 2 Muslim players in the U-12 category.

>>>>>>>>>>>

Registered CP for the U-12 event of a newly-initiated competition at SS2-PJ, about 10mins drive from home.
After playing 2 events at The Summit @Subang Jaya recently and last year (Read SUMMIT2013 & SUMMIT2012), this would be his 3rd competition in a shopping mall.

I find mall competitions to be a bit more challenging due to the "disturbances" involved.

Now, the question is - CAN he be motivated to play!!??
