I don't normally comment on foreign tournaments with webpages but
somewhat belated congaratulations Steve for your Win against a 2326 rated Fide Master.


For those struggling with the Spanish look for
"Resultados Grupo B" on the linked page.
Phil,
My win against Wassin was very special for me. Of the players who are totally blind, he is rated at number 2 in the World after Krylov of Russia so it is a good scalp for me.
