Hi!

Yesterday Karsten Bredahl sent me all his matches from Gibraltar Open! Thanks a lot! It isn't often that I see all matches from the winner from a single tournament. I think I've only seen it once before from one of Mochys wins.

Thomas Myhr - Karsten Bredahl 21pt Gibraltar Open 2017.02.12 Cup5 Final

Karsten Bredahl - Jack Edelson 19pt Gibraltar Open 2017.02.12 Cup4 Semifinal

Karsten Bredahl - Vincent Alexis 11pt Gibraltar Open 2017.02.09 match 1 of 5

Awesome!

A couple of days ago Martin Kahn sent me some of his matches and two of them were from the last Gibraltar Open. Thanks a lot!

Dankwart Plattner - Martin Kahn 11pt Gibraltar Open 2017-02-09 Main R2

Jürgen Orlowski - Martin Kahn 13pt Gibraltar Open 13-02-2017

Martin Kahn is also the most active of the top 5 online match players on Backgammon Stdio! Odds are good you can get a chance to play against him but be prepared for a very difficult match!

There are still a few matches from the last Gibraltar Open that are missing:

Do you have any of these matches? Don't hesitate to send them to me!

Bonus! Malmø Open!

And a sweet bonus from today: Karsten Bredahl just sent me a match file from a match that was played today! Talk about fresh!

Malmø Open 2017 Round 03 Steen Grønbech vs Hans Kristian Mathiesen

Only one Norwegian? Not good! We have to fix that for next year!

I also started to take a look at other matches that needed transcription and transcribed one:

Michy (2.54) - Akiko (2.10) 9pt Merit Open 2016

which I am sure has already been transcribed but it wasn't in my database (it was only 25 minute long so it is almost like cheating! ). Oh hey! Both playing below 3! Impressive!
