This weekend I'm playing in the Apeldoorn Weekender.?Ç¬†A nice tournament which always fills up with mainly local players. But since this town has a team that plays in the top Dutch league, local players means several IM's! In the first round I won quickly; now I can already present you some images of the tournament thanks to a friendly janitor of the ROC Aventus building.
