I competed in a tournament at Heroes Unlimited in Roselle, IL on October 2,
1999.
There were about 35-45 participants.  I used a Haymaker along with about 30
other
people.  Some had already had Fossil cards in their decks, mostly Magmar and
Aerodactyl.  Well, first my deck then the report.  (sorry I don't remember

Now for the tournament.  This was a 6-round single elimination tournament
except for the people who lost in the first round.  Those people who lose in
the first round go into a loser's tournament and the winner gets $10 store
credit.  The winner of the tournament gets $20 dollars store credit. 

First round-??? with an Exeggutor, Alakazam, Dragonair deck. 
It starts out with me getting no basics for 2 times but then I shuffle well
and an ok hand.  I get Scyther, Hitmonchan, and Energy and an oak.  I go
first and put out Scyther.  He starts Abra with Exeggcute and Dratini on
bench.  I put on energy on Scyther and let him go.  He puts energy on Abra
and psyshocks but doesn't paralyze me.  I draw a computer search and use it
to get a pluspower.  I kill his abra and after that he couldn't get much to
stop Hitmonchan.  I win this one pretty easily. 

Second round- Bob with his new stall deck. 
For THREE WEEKS IN A ROW I've had to go against him in the second round. 
Needless to say I was pi$$ed off.  He had a Zapdos, Scyther, Chansey deck
with only 7 energy for his super potions and super energy removals.  He
didn't have Alakazam but he had plenty of pokemon centers and scoop ups.  I
got decked because he impostered me when I had 5 cards in my hand and that
way he was 2 cards ahead.  When the game was over he only had 2 cards left. 

Now I should be out because you only get in the losers tournament if you lose
in the first round but I got put back in to the winners! 

Third round-Cory with a fire/fighting deck with Aerodactyl, Fossil Magmar,
and Hitmonchan. 
I was beating him early with Scyther and Hitmonchan and I decked him by using
Imposter. 
He did get 5 prizes with his gust of winds to my Scyther and killing him with
Magmar but I removaled him 4 times and supered him 4 times and he had no more
energy to attack. 

Fourth round- ???? with a Haymaker with Raichu.
I beat him because every pokemon he brought out I had the person who he was
weak to.  I started with him going first and he had Hitmonchan active and I
had a Scyther.  It took him two turns to do anything.  He layed energy on
Hitmonchan and he had Electabuzz on his bench.  My turn I removaled him and
put energy on scyther.  He put energy on Electabuzz and couldn't do anything.
 My turn I put a double colorless on Syther and slashed.  After a few more
turns i killed all his basics and won.

Fifth round-Bob(again)
After about a 25 minute match I just got tired of playing because he was
going to deck me anyway and I gave up.  That was the final match because him
and his friend were in the final and they decided to let his friend win. 

Next week I'm going to take out Himonchan and put in Mr.Mime.
