Big School Student Gomoku Tournament 2013

On 16-17.02. a lot of children and young people gathered again at Lilleküla Gymnasium to find out the best gomoku players and also to simply enjoy a great game. The tournament secretary, Ain Salula, who did a great job again, initially announced the final positions, more detailed tables should come by Tuesday evening. The final positions can be seen here:

Cool! But what's even more interesting is that x_x is presumably Ain Salula's new account, which is her 3rd one here (the previous 2 were closed), if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks to Ain and briefly commented on the tournaments. There was no intrigue for first place among the 8th-12th grade boys and 4th-7th grade girls - Martin Hõbemägi and Liise Marie Reinik were far ahead of the others. In Martin's case, it is not worth mentioning the couple of losses in the preliminary tournament, they came from a lack of concentration, and besides, he was also helpful in organizing the tournaments all weekend. Mari Kolgi had to work hard to win her group (8th-12th grade girls), but with the European Youth Championships in the summer in mind, the development has been noticeable. In both groups of the small ones, the order of the preliminary tournaments was turned upside down. Siim Tiivel only managed to play some games in the preliminary tournament (24, of which he scored 21 points), which is why he was so poor. However, his such a confident victory over the strong Markus and Arsen on the final day was a surprise. In the younger girls' competition, the first 4-5 played very evenly, so it was difficult to predict anything. Johanna was slightly better in the decisive moments. Among the 4th-7th boys, Erko and Kris showed good concentration in the important games, pushing Marki and Kuno, who had performed better in the preliminary tournament, back.
