My last game during the 2008 AFP-PNP Olympics

Today was my last Chess game during the 2008 AFP-PNP Olympics . Since it has been more than a decade of not playing a chess tournament, this day was my last chance to win at least a single point during the whole tournament. I was playing Board 3 for Team Army with the black pieces against my upperclassman Cpt Luisito Calsado Jr (PMA Class '97) Philippine Airforce. I share this game to all of you chess enthusiasts and fellow business partners, because this story became one of my profound testimonials... I played the game which lasted for about three hours, with only just two hours of sleep the night before. Despite the lack of sleep, I was still alert and energetic to be able to calculate my final winning moves with lightning speed, and I eventually won the game with a sneaky move on the 27th. By the way, I drank 30ml of Kamangi an hour before the game. Thanks to the power of our product and to the support of my team mates! It was an enjoyable and fruitful night afterwards at Nipa Hut! Congratulations to the Army Chess Team for a splendid performance!
