Journey into Professional Chess
Nicholas' first tournament is most probably the Sydney Summer Fun Tournament on Wednesday the 15th of January in Ku-ring-gai Town Hall, Pymble. Wish me luck!
Correction: Instead of the Summer Fun tournament in North Sydney, I will be doing a tournament in Canberra this Saturday! It's unlikely I'll win since 70% of my opponents are over 1800 FIDE and one is literally an FM (FIDE Master), but I'll try my best! I'll try posting the results on the day or this Sunday. Wish me luck!
Didn't do too well in the tournament having a 1/7 score, but the players were really good. A wise opponent of mine who was in his 70s or 80s said he was literally rated 1800 5 years ago meaning he was definitely high rated. Don't know the placings yet although they might come by the end of the month or sooner. But for now... practice more chess!
