Great event as always. This is the third yr the games have hosted a NoGi and BJJ Tourney and this is my third yr attending. My Uber Coach John Moore was once again in my corner and did an awesome job when he was called upon by the event staff to help set up the brackets and ref. Didnt do as well as I hoped in NoGi, brought home a Bronze but like I said,,,,NOT HAPPY. In the Gi however,,,I actually was able to have John take a break from ref'n and coach me. I was smooth and crisp,,,My first match went a total of 9 minutes (5min match no score no submission then 2 min OT with the same outcome) I pulled off the my trademark Noose Choke from guard to finish. The bracketing led to a funny situation that had three of us in contention for gold. I opted to go as the bracket was set and have two competitors roll for Gold and I would roll with the loser for Silver (I explained that Im not concerned with bringing home trophies but rather getting experience). Had a nice roll to take silver and went undefeated in the Gi. I was pleased that I was able to do everything John was telling me.
A big thanks goes out to my evil Minion Jess. Her camera work was superb and it was good to have her with me.
I now have a good break until my next event. John and I are gonna go over the new gameplan and get it fine tuned and up to MAX HURTN POWER. When its at optimum levels,,,we will unleash it. This event we implemented it and it worked well so I can only imagine where its gonna lead to.
