Chess Trophies
I have 4 1st places, 3 2nd places, 2 3rd place trophies, and 1 7th place chess trophy.
Chess tournament
I went to a chess tournament in Washington middle school at 9:00. I went there and I had my first round. I versed an 846. My rating said 812 not 875 from my last tournament if you've read the chess tournament before this one. I won that game, upsetting.
Next, I played a 101, at the end you'll know something special about that rating. I won again of course because if I lost or drew which is a tie, I would lose a LOT of rating.
Then, I versed a 961, more than 100 more than mine if you calculate it. But unfortunately, for him, he resigned also known as forfeit which mean they automatically lose but he changed his mind. Once we started again, I made a HUGE mistake and thought I was going to lose but I said that you resigned. He said that he changed his mind so he raised his hand. Once the director came, he argued with him and I listened but the director said that you can't change your mind so I reported I won THAT game too. Cool right? So I won three games, one left.
After that, I played a 680. I couldn't believe I STILL couldn't lose or draw or else I would lose a lot of rating. The same director explained the resign thing to everyone and the player sacrificed a couple pieces and thought it was a trap but none of them were traps. She won 8 points and traded queens but I still had more points so at the end I won.
Every time I finished a round I went outside and raced with my mom and she got head starts because I was faster and the last time I talked with the coach and he said I was the champion. Two other people said that they won all the games too. I listened to the trophies and 5th grade which is my grade, 1st place wasn't me. Then I listened more and another 1st place was me. My mom took 4 pictures of me.
Finally, I went home with my first place hugest trophy.
