Chess Tournament

Tuesday 2nd August 2018:

The opponents Queen has been taken. A checkmate is coming. Two moves. One. "Checkmate" I say. I have just beaten the top-ranked player. "Good Game" We shake hands.

6 out of 7 games I have won. Tied with the leader Griffin McCann. But he had higher ranking so he won. :( But on the bright side were are going to Auckland (Jai, Miller, Konnah and I). It was great.

  2. I love the way you have written this Jack! The way you have used short sentences really makes me feel the tension and action in your chess game. And wohoooo - beating the top-ranked player must have felt pretty amazing! :)
