Ok, great to have more details!
Standard lang pala, and no rapid/blitz and took note of the games skeds.
Ala pa nga lang sa chess-results per check last nite and this am, sana bukas ay meron na!
GO TEAM PHILIPPINES GO !!
Wheres the wonder kid "S R Pangilinan"?
Yes, we're in biz its already in chess-results as of this am!
Only one player per age-group will represent the country. His teammate Julius Gonzales got 2nd place in the Standard category in the ASEAN Chess Championship. Stephen is only 3rd. He got bronze in the Standard, silver in Rapid, and bronze in Blitz. Though he wants to play, we don't have much money to send him in Beijing.
