Last weekend (05.02.2005) at the PCCP Clubhouse a chess tournament took place ... AND I WON!
It was a great experience to play against many different people with different skills and I had to fight really tough to win this title.
First game against SQL Peter I was loosing my knight really soon and my rook too, but I managed to win after breaking in his backdoor.
Second game against my girlfriend Elisabeth was very hard, I knew that she plays well but she made a few mistakes and so I was able to win this game too.
I won my next two games, against Bertl and Alfi, and so I had to play in the quarterfinals against Wolfi - he played concentrated but I was the better player - next win and now against my litte brother Jakob.
This was my hardest game, he played great and without a mistake I was one bishop short - but after a long game my pawns made the difference for my win.
So I played the final against Max and I was controlling this game from the beginning not giving him a chance to play with his queen and managed to win the tournament.
