Arthur just  come back from  nice 'playa' tournament in Sanxenxo,Galicia with a new 1st place title!

Arthur reports:

"The tournament was organized in amazing  4*hotel with great sea food + plenty of water spa possibilities and great massasges that we all used even my daughter Carolina!

   I must admit that even that I was still with jet lag and  tired from Las Vegas ,the massages,swimming pool with Carolina and my women helped me to start very well with 4.5 from 5 ,but it was there when my energy almost finished ,luckily 4 draws (two where short ,but still after fight of opening , and missing two winning positions in the way ...
    

             The idea was to have vacation tournament  but finally it was kind of close tought tournament for me facing 2 solid Gm's and 5 young IM's... so no real vacation on the board! :-) "
