This was an excellent wonderful checkers event I ever had. I am glad I didn't
miss it this year.
I was lucky to win both games against Leroy Adams, Earl Morrison and Alan
Millhone, and one game against the greatest survivor
Ken Shoesmith. I will put
games under other forum session.
Respectfully, Alex Moiseyev
