I am in UK after the WSC...

And I end up playing in the Winter Matchplay with several other WSCs and foreign participants.

Am I mad or what.

Was lucky to beat Ade A in Round 1 when my final rack offer more flexibility in the endgame to win by 4.

Got jammy against Wayne Kelly for a big win.

Couldn't overcome Di Dennis and David Sutton, them jammers.

Had fun against Roy Miller who was playing catchup until the end even when I played out with OUTRIDER.

Elie Dangoor gave me quite a lead to catchup, which I managed and overtake with RECEPToR towards the pre-endgame. He never opened for himself after changing 7 and I drew the second blank. A slow agonising death.

Have to beat Mark Kenas tomorrow and hope someone(s) deals Di Dennis two losses to equalise the field.

So how did you do in the WSC? Do share your game analysis and other memorable moments with us!

Let's see.....if the WSC ended after round 3, Malaysia would definitely have gotten its third spot.

After 24 rounds, I was 74th. Nuff said.
