IM MAS Declared Winner Of Warrior Weekend

23 May 2011, Kuala Lumpur - The Warrior weekend was recently held at DATCC and easily won by Malaysia's no. 1 chess player, IM MAS Hafizulhelmi.


The DAT chess cente blog reported that IM Mas Hafizul breezed through the Warrior Weekend with a perfect 7 score with recently crowned Ampang Chessmaster champion Sumant Subramaniam coming in second with 6 points. Sumant younger brother, Shreyes and Kamalariffin Wahiduddin came in 3rd and 4th respectively with 5.5 points.

The event attracted 46 participants, a far cry from the previous 92 and 106 players playing in the first 2 weekender series i.e. Renegade and Maverick. But the organizer is not deterred by the low number of participants and attributes it to school exams, MSSS/M selection and too many events as the main reasons for the low turnout.

THE AMPANG CHESSMASTER 2011

The Ampang Chessmaster concluded yesterday with Sumant Subramiam emerging as champion after triumphing over 2 Filipino challengers in the form of Ian Udani in the penultimate round and newcomer Allan Umadhay in the last round. It is a good pick up by Sumant after his almost disastrous qualification for the SEA Games squad.

For his valiant effort, Sumant won the Ampang Chessmaster trophy and was presented the RM500 cash prize by Ampang MP, YB Zuraida Kamaruddin. 3 players tied with 6 points but based on tie break, Ian Udani came in Second after defeating Mohd Fadli Zakari a.k.a Stonemaster (who ended up 9^th), Ahmad Fadzil Nayan 3^rd after ousting Veteran winner, Norazman Ismail and Kamaluddin Yusoff 4^th after his win over Ampang best player winner, Mohd Faizal Roslan.

Filipino Allan Umadhay, a newcomer to be reckon with, came in 5^th with 3 other players who share the same points, Ahmad Rubel 6^th, Rizal Kamal 7^th, Kamalariffin 8^th. Fadli Zakaria and Foo Chee Kin wrapped up the 9^th and 10^th spot.

During the announcement of the results, there was a slight error on the 5^th best player for the Primary school children with Haziq Aiman Nizam being left out of the winners list. Haziq’s name was accidentally left out and in his place, Chew Zhi Xuan’s name was mentioned. Whilst the winners list and the prizes will not be changed, the organizer have apologized to the parents and moving forward, we will strive to better the process and improve the situation where such error can be minimized further or ultimately eliminated.

Next up: DATCC WARRIOR RAPID CHESS WEEKEND on Sunday, 22^nd May 2011
