13/11 UPDATE: Finally, on the last day - After 2 "bonus" points earlier in the Nf6 Junior tournament, a decent half point from hAnA in a drawn game against Amir Muqri in Round 8.

>>>>>>>
Despite being ill, stubborn hAnA took part in the Nf6 event held in Taman Tun Dr.Ismail, Kuala Lumpur on a wet evening.

(Day 1, Round 1. hAnA v. Gabriel Bick, USA. Picture: Courtesy of NW facebook) )

Unfortunately, she lost in the 1st Round to G.Bick(USA) whilst playing White.

Tomorrow, she'll be playing Black against Norshafaah. Due to the late kick-off tonight as a result of rain and logistical delays, the Second and Third Round tomorrow will start at 10.30am & 3.30pm respectively.

Nf6 JUNIOR Chess Championship 2012, FIDE-Rated Event in TTDI-KL

UPDATE 9/11:
hAnA's participation in this event is questionable after having to bring her to the clinic around 1-2am today due to breathing difficulties. The attending doctor I.e. Dr.S says that she's in no condition to take part in any activity whatsoever. However, I have my own opinion and hopes that she recovers fast after bring given certain medications.

If she were to miss this event, am hoping that the organisers will accept Her brother i.e. The cHEss pIRATe as a last minute replacement.

>>>>>>>
Rcvd a SMS on Saturday,3/11 from CS informing of a FIDE-rated invitational tournament to be held in Taman Tun Dr. Ismail(TTDI) - Kuala Lumpur. The organisers had extended an invitation to KL players via CS to participate in the event scheduled from 9 till 13 December 2012 and that there are 4 more slots available.

A check through Malaysia's chess blogs revealed the following additional info for the event in TTDI I.e.
The Chess Connections
Syazrin.Com

Apparently, the Nf6 Junior chess event is part of the Nf6 Masters event.


Even though I'd registered and paid for Hana's participation in the 1st Summit Open on Sunday, 11/11, how can I not register hAnA taking cognizance of the fact that the event is so close to home. Moreover, we were also planning to take part in another FIDE - rated event i..e the 4th Penang Heritage City scheduled to be held in Mid-December 2012. Read HERE.

Participating Players(as per SMS rcvd on 4/11@11:02pm) are:-
(1) 1539 - M.Faqih
(2) 1549 - Amir Ghaazi
(3) Lim Ming Xian
(4) Lim Ming Kang

(6) Shafaah Zamri
(7) 1573 - Gabriel Bick

(9) 1383 - Amir Muqhri
.......and the 10th person invited is AMIRA FARHANA bt.AMIRUL (1264).
Note: Ratings listed are Malaysian National Ratings and NOT FIDE Ratings.

Another info that i'd received is that in order to be FIDE-rated, hAnA will have to earn AT LEAST 1 point from all her 9 Round-Robin games.
