Hi Shahil,

I hope you do really well also. You deserve to do well!

You can follow Shahil in the first GMA tournament below, and as recently discussed in another post, he beat GM Gergely Aczel 2528 in rd 2 with 1.c4 and 2.g3 :slight_smile:

Unfortunately, I finished half a point short of the norm. I had many missed chances, especially in the last round. Hopefully, I can do better next time. It was nice talking to Shahil for a bit. Best of luck in the rest of your tournaments Shahil!

Andy, the positive is that you were close to the norm and the 14 ELO towards 2500 will be useful. I think it is just a matter of playing and the norms will come very soon. :smiley:

Actually, 5 of the 10 players in that tournament are/have been members. And we know that sooner or later, the title will come, for all of you.
