It was a tense day for the two opponents today. I was more scared than usual. Of course, this is the finals we are talking about. Hassan seemed more confident than I was.

In fact, in both of his games he brought his queen out to Qf6 as black and Qf3 when he played white. I didn’t know how to counter it exactly. So I just played according to Chess Opening Principles. And a few moves from the opening, He was forced to sacrifice his queen for a rook! Hassan fought hard. But when he blundered another piece, even he knew it was over.

Here we are in the presenting of the prizes at the end of the games. Khaled (ME!) is on the left, Hassan is in the middle, and the Supervisor is on the right. (Look at me, I feel so proud! hehehehe!)

The grand prize was an IPOD SHUFFLE (1 gigabyte of space). The second place prize is a 5 KD gift voucher to the Virgin Megastore. If you look at the picture above, I am holding the IPOD in the bag happily 🙂 And here is a picture of the Grand Prize.

Not Many people have participated in this year’s AUK chess tournament. 

But the games were all fun and enjoyable.

All the games have finished and everybody was knocked out except two people.

Khaled (THATS ME!) will be playing Hassan on Sunday MAY 3rd at 2:30 P.M.

The grand prize is an Ipod Nano!

Wish Me Luck 🙂

One way is to bring in another adminstrator to update the site in Arabic!

A second idea is to post new puzzels every week or so.

And another idea… well, I will let you decide on what to do.
