I played in the UiTM Chess Tournament on last Sunday. I never thought that many strong players would come. They were Ian Udani, Kamaluddin Yusof, Abdullah Che Hassan, etc. I was sitting at the 12 th table when the game started. I won the first 2 games and a row and got 2 points. I was shock to meet the 1st seeding player, Ian Udani, a Phillipine guy residing in Malaysia. It was terrible because I was at table 15th previously and now at TABLE 1!!! I tried to play my best against him. Everyone was watching a duel between Ian and I. I felt like a superstar that moment. Heh... Anyone got such experience before where everyone is watching over you within 50 cm and they are players from all ages. Well, luck wasn't on my side when I lost in a winning position due to time trouble. Maybe I used all my time thinking on how to win the game. Finally I falter but I gained some respect for gaining advantage on the position against Ian Udani.
Then after that, I was so tired. I used up all my strength against Ian Udani. I won the next round easily. In the 5th round, I was in a winning position but I used up all my time in thinking again. Well, that's luck I think. I NEVER GIVE UP on HOPE. I won my next 2 round in a great battle as I played safely. Finally, I scored 5/7 and I won the best IPT award for that. Though I was ranked 15th / 95 players, it's a good achievement anyway. I will keep on fighting. I will upload the picture in my friendster and facebook. Ganbatte....
