The first results of the IEST 2006 tournament are out. Yellow, Reach, Super and Legionnaire make it to the semi finals, and will leave Beijing with at least $1,500 each.
The first day of the IEST 2006 tournament has just finished. Today brought four players to the semis, as well as a very controversial game between Reach and Legionnaire. Here are the results:
Group A | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Player | M | W | L | % | Pe | Pts | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Super | YellOw | Advokate | Phoenix66 | (Exported 2006-12-11 18:51:12) Source | |
In group A, Super appeared to be very strong, beating everyone in his group, even YellOw who ended second.
Group B | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Player | M | W | L | % | Pe | Pts | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reach | Legionnaire | F91 | Draco | (Exported 2006-12-11 18:52:32) Source | |
Everyone expected Draco to perform very well in this tournament, but it did not happen. The three other players ended in a three way tie, with Reach freelosing against Legionnaire (picture) since it would enable him not to play against Yellow in the playoffs. At least, that's what he thought.
In fact, the three way tie did not happen, and the IEST officials counted the 'small games' to count the rankings: Reach had won four games and lost two
Legionnaire and F91 had won four games and lost three
'Unfortunately' for him, Reach kept his first position, and will face YellOw in the semis. On their side, Legionnaire and F91, who had the same win/loss record, had to play a tiebreaker. Peter the great won this match 2-0, and thus advances to the semis.
