You only need 23 to tie and 24 to break his record.

Originally posted by Tyrannosauruschexcongrats, its a big accomplishment... 🙂
Nice work, it was quite a convincing win as well. I have come close to winning lots of tournaments but always seem to fall short (apart from one time) but have a few on the go at the moment that I am hoping to take.
ive won 1 before but then fell short a few times a well, but im gonna get more!!
Originally posted by TyrannosauruschexI lost won drew one, annoyingly enough against the same opponent, but the game I drew was my own stupidity, I stalemated his lone king with my knight 2 pawns and king lol.......so it shouldve been 1/1.

At your rating I am sure it is a heck of a lot tougher as mistakes arent that common with 1900 players.
Congrats Pigface, the first tourney win is always a stepping stone to future victories, when I got my first tournament victory it was more of a relief than anything else. Afterwards I was just able to play more calmly knowing that I secured it...since then I have won 10 more and I still enjoy it everytime when I see a new tourney victory popup on my profile lol...
Originally posted by ItsYouThatIAdoreThanks, I doubt I will add many more now my rating has plateaud 🙂 although I am in a couple more lower rated tourneys still so they will be my last hopes now that I have found my true rating, (i feel a little guilty playing in 1200-1400 tournaments now that my rating has gone above them)

Originally posted by zebanoBecause these "kiddies" (thanks for calling me a kiddie btw...) enter low rating tournaments, the one I won was 1200-1300 rated which is all the noobs and woodpushers like myself (no offense intended to anyone) , and as such most games are won/lost on blunders rather than tactical brilliance, low rated tournaments are by there nature much more open to wild wins and losses than big boy tournaments with seasoned players that play a much more solid game.
Gah my sense of inferiority is overwhelming! How do all this kiddies win tournaments while I have entered hundreds and made only two finals (both with 1900+ players who took the victory).
Oh yeah Congratulations. 😕
Dont feel inferior, you would totally crush me in about 15 moves so although you havent won an online meaningless (relatively) tournament, you are a much stronger player than anyone in the tournamnet I won, which os better, being a strong player like yourself or being quite rubbish and winning a little tournament? 🙂
Cheers for that. It was hard work to win it - blanca is no way a 1700 strength player, more like a 2000 in disguise.
Like this classy finish he got me with in the penultimate round - I doubt many 1700s would come up with this combination.
