Hard luck Khaled, you deserve better against Hani Sameih.
I don’t think the winner will get more than 7.5 pt. so don’t lose hope:-)

Starting from today can you take pictures for me and I’ll do the same to you!
Cause I have 55 photos from the 1st round, but I was surprised that I was not there in any of them:-)
