CCC Summer Tournament - 2500+ Matches!

Hey guys,
The Chinese Community Center was holding its Semi-Annual (Non-Sanctioned) Tournament in Houston Texas Last Saturday (June 5th 2010).  The tournament structure was round robin with 5 differently ranked individuals playing each other to then later to be placed in a division of their skill bracket.  Each skill bracket contains 2 groups of players.  From here the winners of their groups would face off for the first and second places in their divisions.  For me, it was my first big tournament and I had alot of fun watching all the high level players battle against each other.  It was very refreshing to see so many penholders present during the tournament.  Where I'm from there hardly isn't any penholder influence. So I have to film my form, as well as others, to work on my game.  Incidentally, many of the matches contain penholders in them.  About half of the videos are of the semi-finals and finals of the tournament. 

Anyway, one of the members from my club asked if I could put them up online because he missed the entire final/semi final matchup due to him trying to place in his own division.    Since they've been up for a couple of days now, I thought I'd share them with you.

Note: I contacted the coordinator of the tournament (Frank Cheng) and asked him to ask the players in these matches if they had any objection with me putting them up online.  As of right now, there have been none.  Mind you I will have to remove them if I am asked from the individuals in the film.

Good vids. Good to see that female chopper beat that USATT 2500 guy.

yep, that makes sense. A good chopper is the last player you want to face if you are a little rusty.
