Re: Apterous Masters (formerly COMA) 2010

First Round:

James Robinson 0-2 Martin May

James Robinson 81-91 Martin May
James Robinson 72-98 Martin May

Well annoyed with myself, especially the 2nd game, missing some sitters there, especially rounds 3, 9 & 13. :x

Still, fair play to Martin, a deserving winner.
