Round 1 - Vs Some Kid (Relinquished Deck)

Duel 1 - I won this game.  He couldn't get his Relinquished and I killed him with Harpie's Brother and Jinzo.

Duel 2 - I won this game too.  He almost had me.  He got Relinquished out and sucked up my Goblin Attack Force and he beefed it up and attacked my life points.  I drew another Goblin Attack Force and used Heavy Storm to take out his magic and traps.  Then I killed his Relinquished.  And from then on, I took out the rest of his life points.

Round 2 - Vs My Son Bart Simpson (Retro Beatdown)

Duel 1 - I won this game easily.  He attacks my first Nimble Momonga and my second Nimble Momonga.  I sacrifice the third one for Jinzo and start killing him slowly.  I pull out a Gearfried to help the assault.  Finally, his I take out his life points.

Duel 2 - I won this game easily too.  I countered his magic cards and kept his monster field clear for me to attack his life points.  I use Nimbles and Sangans to attack.  This was just too funny.  Then I finally sacrifice for Jinzo and kill him.

Round 3 - Vs Larry (Beatdown)

Duel 1 - This game took a little time to win but I was still successful.  I think he had some 7 Colored Fish and some Maha Vailos.  I easy beat him taking his monsters and sacrificing them for 500 life points with Cannon Soldier.

Duel 2 - I won this game faster than the first.  I try to summon a few monsters but he uses Torrential Tribute.  I slam my hand on the table in anger.  But I kept my cool because I had a Monster Reborn in my hand.  I use Monster Reborn to get Jinzo back.  From then on, I kept his field clear and I took out his life points.

Championship Round - Vs Theo (Barrel Dragon)

Duel 1 - He won this game.  He Snatch Steals my Jinzo and it went downhill for me from there.  Game over.

Duel 2 - I regroup with a win.  I take him down to about 1200.  I have a Geafried and a Cannon Soldier on the Field.  He sets a monster in defense with no traps or magic on the field.  I won this game with a Noblmen Of Crossout in my hand.  I attack and take out the rest of his life points.

Duel 3 - This game was very, very close but he comes out on top.  I reborn his Barrel Dragon and was successful with the effect.  I attack his life points directly.  He plays a Snatch Steal, sacrifices one of his monsters for Jinzo and starts attacking at will.  I had to draw a Raigeki or Dark Hole but it wasn't coming.  I had to keep throwing defenses down.  I was relieved because I set a Nimble Momonga down.  He plays a Tribute To The Doomed. No!  He attacks and finally kills me.  I shook his hand because it was a great championship round.

Prop to:
Me doing better then last week
Me making it to championship
