[Results] Help by playing 09, benefic tournament top 8

[wette]

Hi All,

As every december since 2006 the catalan vintage comunity organizes a benefic tournament in collaboration with the association "Help by playing" which developes various integration projects with children using card, rol & other games.

We got a 51 players tournament  and hilarious donated prizes like:

A pack of altered: gifts, will, mistical, demonic, tinker fo the first. I think that thay finally achieved 2000 euros for "help by playing".

The winner also had a slot into the final of the Catalan Vintage league as prize. And after only having the possibility of playing 3 other tournaments this year I got the slot! (last minute!). I went 14-1 during the 7 rounds of swiis beating: MUD, TPS, U/G/B fish, Control tezzeret, Remora-Trap, dragon painters and merfolks. The deck shinned the whole day. Don't blame because of the sideboard chooses, I did the side with the cards i got... cause i was not supposed to play TPS.

Here you have the info:

Attendance: 51 players, 7 rounds of swiis, NO top 8.

Date place: 6/12/09 Barcelona
