Let's see... In Linares, when players agree on a quick draw or don't play for blood they get a heavy fine that they must pay to Rentero. In the game just finished, Junior 6 and Shredder 4 drew without much effort in my opinion. Therefore, and being the Rentero of Cadaqués, I should be entitled to $$$. :) >Good luck with this tournament Enrique and I hope Century will take part. Thanks, Enrique >Wybe
