I got jolteon added a double colorless and heads i win he had no basics he said i cheated but luckily someone else saw the match.(quick match)so far 3 guys were eliminated and i was in 9th. Which i wasn't too happy about because i usually come in second after my friend josh:(  
 
 
MATCH 3
Me VS. Josh(all grass)
Lots of japs in his deck not legal in DCI sanctioned tournament. Opening hand,WHAT he got a squirtle and a charmander? I got the best hand EVER i got an eevee magmar and a moltres, the rest fire energys!! I put out magmar he puts out charmander(the idiot, squirtle is my weakness)I go first,i drew a flareon, i put a double colorless on eevee. He evolved his squirtle and added an energy to scratch me for 10. I placed an electric energy and evolved my eevee then retreated the magmar and ...heads 30. He pumps up his wartortle with a water energy. I placed an energy on jolteon, then killed his charmander, My prize was a wartortle. He brought out wartortle and placed an energy to bite and benched a rattata. I did pin missile killed his wartorle. He brought out rattata and bit for 20.(oh no only 10 life left)  I knew the game relied on these flips. I had to get 2/4 flips to win luckily i got 3/4 that was a very close match. Well i came in second and won a $20 gift certificate and got a holo aerodactle.  Thank you for reading this long report.
