Time to brag

Postby viking60 » 18 Oct 2016, 15:17

Some while ago I got the second place in a 5 min Blitz tournament on chess.com

There are many good guys there and so little time to think:

Believe me; 5 min is not much time to play a chess game!

So I feel entitled to brag about it +1 :smug

Sure I have played against people from almost any nation - including Swedes.

There are many good players in India and in Armenia, Russia, the Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Jemen, Malaysia and the US. I have played against the world :smug

Lots of good players out there.

When I play tournaments I don't have time to see whom I am playing against though - Blitz is really fast so I have enough with just keeping up with the tempo.

I won 4 games and lost 3 (0 draws) - that gave me the second place.
