Day one: Simone de Ruyter and Mantijn van Leeuwen competing for one of those last semi-final slots. Neither one of them made it, unfortunately. |
|
Day two: 'Pressure rises' ;-) Ewout Deurwaarder (in front) playing against me (Wim Heemskerk). Angelique Bouwman is watching over us. I had missed the Dutch nationals and made up for it today by playing three out of the four other Dutchmen in the semi's. |
|
Meanwhile Kees Schipstra is enjoying not making it into the semi's. After all nothing beats a drinking game, if Oscar Silow is right - Oscar quit the semi's to join in the drinking game. - Kees moved to Congo after Worlds was over. I wonder what beer they will serve him there. |

[Worlds-4] Joern Licht (left) playing Steve Cantens in the last match of the finals. Insert: The One Ring, which Steve took home afterwards. This match is actually a rematch. Joern had made an error in his decklist: the card that had cost Steve the game wasn't on it. Steve was therefore granted a rematch (after the error was corrected). This time Steve won the match and... the title! Congratulations Steve! |
