45 d/30

One of the difficult things in these tournaments is play the next game while forgetting the previous one either it was a very good win or a bad defeat. Sometimes with only 1 hour between 2 games that seems impossible. You have to start the next game forgetting that you blundered horribly in the previous one. Eventually you learn to do that too
That's so true. I certainly need to work on that.
I will consider your diet advices
Thank you DeirdreSkye for sharing your experience and your advices.
The only similar tournaments i played in lasted 3 days at the weekend. I always took a 1/2 point bye in Round 1 on Friday evening then played the 3 rounds on Saturday. If i did at least 'OK' in those then i'd come back for the 2 final rounds on Sunday.
