How’s that for my first prediction. At least 3 out of 5 of my predictions were right !
I predicted a win for Nusa but got the margin wrong.
Also, I underestimated my own team result vs Tan & Tan. 
. They didn’t field their strongest lineup so we were lucky, I guess.

Again I was late. Reached the LRT at 6.30pm. I forgot how much I missed jamming in the LRT like a pack of sardines during office rush hour. I seriously think the “L” for Light was a mistake. Bigger capacity for the trains would have been much welcomed.
Anyway that’ll teach to be late next time.
Reached Wilayah Kompleks at 7:10pm and was greeted with a hissing black cat. Round 13 and a Black cat. Good omen I’m sure
Games have already started but my opponent was not there yet.

Two rounds were played today. I have never entered the National Closed before because it’s just too serious for me.
This year’s Men section looks slightly weaker compared to last year. However, anybody can be champion. The difference in strength amongst the top players is quite small.

Yeah he is back. Looks like he has not lost his touch as he put away chess heavies such as Ian Udani, Fariz Shafruddin and NM Kamal Abdullah apparently with ease. Nicholas finished with a perfect 7/7 to finish clear and undisputed champion for the last CAS event of the year.
I arrived at Wilayah Complex new venue at the fourth floor at about 9.15 am. I met Cheah Eu Gene while walking there. I joked that someone told me that the playing venue was the car park and there would be no air-con! Luckily when we arrived, there was a proper place ready but no air-con.

Ian Udani. Arguably one of the strongest player in the local rapid ‘circuit’ this year. I think only Nicholas Chan is his match in rapid play. His team is also very strong. It’ll be interesting to see how Ian fares in the Malaysian Open. which he will also be taking part. One of his weaker points is long time controls as seen in his results in the Selangor Open. But Ian has been working on his longer time control games and I have no doubts he has improved. I’m predicting one or two Udani upset wins over GMs.

Good news is that I’m getting free WiFi from the WCG event in the playing hall. Bad news is that the WCG event will end by the time DATMO starts. At least there’ll be 2 days of free WiFi.
