Another match coming up and it is a home match. Good for the psychy but of course after a long series of losses a lot of pressure to bring this one finally home. The grapevines say the players are all tough, beyond 4.0 rating and it was not going to be easy, but I was ready, Tuesday I had mostly hit by myself with some few drills…. so best conditions for breaking the bad streak.
I came on time and Ana gave me up to 8:30pm so I should be fine. My opponent though was 20mins late but no problem… Strother (his first name) was early enough to get the match finished. I was off to a good start and I won the first just barely and could also put away the second one. Finally in the third game I lost my concentration a little and lost…. The fourth game was a nail-biter and I had to pull myself together to finally get to a 11:9 win and my first league win in a while. The home court certainly made a difference.
