My First Chess Prize! Guilt Free Bragging


A win is a win so I am willing to conclude that any prize is a prize? My swimming session with the sharks ended in a minor prize for yours truly. It might be stretching to far to take the achievement as a sign of the benefits of my chess studies. My results from the ICC Monthly Standard good be improved: Loss - bye - Loss - wo

I will probably join the March Tournament as well in a humble attempt to score >0 points in a more glamorous fashion!

  2. Nope, wo as in "walk over". I had to forfeit due to "winter v disease". a simple point from the bye was enough for the prize!

  5. Buddy, I wish I knew! A true win should be worth more than a bye in my book. Maybe I got a lucky break as U1300 or something?
