I one the first match easily losing no life points. The second match he won with SoRL and got out his Blue-Eyes. The third was really hard not exactly sure what happened except for at the end. I had 1675 LP he had 3500 LP I drew and got my favorite card: Barrel Dragon and I had a Soul Exchange in my hand and La Jinn on the field. I also had 7 Tools face down. So I used Soul Exchange and tributed his Wall of Illusion and my La Jinn for Barrel Dragon, and ended my turn. He drew and placed a monster face down and ended his turn. I drew a SS and used Barrel Dragon's effect, it worked and I destroyed his 7 Colored Fish, then attacked him for 2600 taking him down to 900 LP. He drew didn't get a monster and ended his turn. I drew and got Waboku, and I attacked again with Barrel Dragon, he flipped over Mirror Force and I flipped up 7 Tools losing 1000 LP taking me down to 675 LP and defeating him.

He went first and played a card face down, and some magic or trap cards. I drew and played Wall of Illusion face down. Next he played another card face down, I played La Jinn and attacked his card on the right, he flipped it up and it was a Koumori Dragon!? I couldn't believe it who plays with a card that weak with no effect. Well he placed another card face down and ended. I was like jeez this is never gonna end if he keeps playin monsters in defense. I drew and got a SS tributed my Wall of Illusion for it and attacked with both. They were both weak and were killed but one was Sangan so he got to search for a monster. He played the monster he had gotten from Sangan's Effect face down and ended his turn. I drew and got Magic Jammer and played it face down, then I tributed my La Jinn for the other SS I had in my hand and attacked. He flipped over Man-Eater Bug and killed my other SS, so I ended my turn. He wasn't able to play any cards so he ended his turn. I drew and got Monster Reborn so you know what that meant reborn my summon skull placed La Jinn and attacked dealing 6800 damage leaving him with a measly 1200 LP left. He drew and couldn't play anything so I attacked and won. Then next duel went pretty much the same except i killed him with 2 witch of the black forest and a Man-Eater Bug

3rd match:

Me vs. Rubin (Almost like my deck)

I was shaking I was so excited, I had never made it this far in the sanctioned tournament before. The first duel I won with my Jirai Gumo and Barrel Dragon. The second Duel I had both my SS out and attacked his face down card and he used Mirror Force. Next he played Invader of the Throne in face down in defense. I played my second Jirai Gumo and ended my turn. He flipped up Invader of the Throne and I trap holed it but he still got my Jirai Gumo. Then he played 7 Colored Fish and attacked so I lost. I went first and this was one fast and crazy duel all I know is that we took turns destroying each others monsters, until I drew and played MoF face down. He attacked and I got my Monster Reborn back he only had one monster so he couldn't attack again. I drew and played my Monster Reborn getting Barrel Dragon back used it's effect and flipped two heads destroying his monster and attacked killing him.

4th match:

Me vs. Derek (crazy deck)

Argghh I was hoping I wouldn't have to play him cause he had slaughtered my friend and my friend had a pretty good deck. I went first and played trap hole and 7 tools and 7 colored fish. He played Confiscation and destroyed my Blue-Eyes then reborned it, and played WotBF he also placed malevolent nuzzler on Blue-Eye then attacked leaving me with 5000 LP. I drew and got SS but it did me no good cause I couldn't play any cards. He played nothing and attacked i flipped up Waboku and I was left with 3900 LP. I drew got Soul Exchange and used it on his but he used Magic Jammer, attacked and killed me. The second duel I won with of course my Barrel Dragon. The last duel he totally annihilated me with Maho Vailo and Mask of Darkness, all my creatures were at the bottom. :-( Well I lost so I went and got my tournament pack, of course it had the same usual crap in it then I had to go home.
