December 1 - Rounds 3-5 - K12 Grade Level Nationals - Orlando, Florida


Cameron's third round opponent, Brittany Nguyen. It's the second girl Cameron has played in this tournament. It's interesting that there are not many girls playing chess and Cameron plays two in the last three rounds. He won this game. Since the round started at 10:00 a.m. we were a little late to this round and had to run to the playing hall. The clocks were just starting when Cameron entered.
Cameron's fourth round opponent, Prateek Pinisetti. this was Cameron's longest game so far. He was losing in the opening, but ended up winning in the end. This game had him a little worried. This time Cameron's opponent arrived a little late to the round, Cameron thought Prateek was doing some preparation for the opening because he played the opening very well. Cameron is now 4-0.
Cameron's fifth round opponent, fellow Californian Art Zhao, the two have met many times. Unfortunately Art had to be black twice in a row. Cameron was due to be white and because he is higher rated, he got his color and Art had to be black two times in a row. Cameron wins this round and is no2 5-0.


We did take time to go to Downtown Disney. We went to Wolfgang Pucks Pizzeria and walked the length of Downtown. We took pictures where the boys would cooperate. It was the fastest that I've ever been in and out of Downtown Disney, I didn't have any time to to shop or have fun :-(.
