CAPP chess 16-under chess tournament Dec 29, 2007

The Chess Arbiters Association of the Philippines (CAAP) sponsored chess tournament for 16 under boys and girls that was held at the Ramon Magsaysay High Scholl in Cubao, Q.C. went on properly. First round was finished before lunch break and the 7-round games ended at around 6:30 pm. The arbiters were very conscious of the people and parents watching so close around the players. After the submission of the last player on a certain round they were able to release new pairings immediately. We just hope other chess organizers will do the same discipline.

I (Daryl Unix) came short with a .5 point from getting the 10-under category. Kuya Ferdie (Ferdinand Reyes) did it again. I played with the same guy on my QC circle tourney last Thursday (Dec 27). Here at RMHS we are again paired on our last game. Twice I should have gotten the 10-under category… Sayang! But kuya is really good, I am still very far away from his skills. Well I am just playing chess for barely 6 months only. This been a very good game. More practice for me!
