Feel free to post your notes,I appreciate any comment! BTW,The 2 tournaments are under way from about 2 weeks and I must admit that I have over 80% performance in the first tournament ;-)......Ok,sorry,couldn't hold the temptation,please don't flame me,just kidding :-) ;-) Cheers, Dr.Wael Deeb P.S.Finally I changed the time control and stopped using sudden death,by the request of many fans....
