So Long Silence since 2011

It has been a very long silence from the Capitan......various events entered since 2011 HMKL...mostly stopped at the either 1st round or 2nd or 3rd round..hehehe Well, back to CIMB Darters, we emerged 2nd runners up in the NBSC 2012 Championship...Capitan fought very well to qualify until the Quarterfinal for the Single event whereas in the Team event, we were stopped by HSBC to qualify for the final. We defeated RHB in the 3rd and 4th place event. Not bad to emerge Bronze medalists for the 2nd successive years in the NBSC. Zahar became the new player of the year for CIMB. He assisted a lot for the team and partnered me in the double event for CIMB. At the end of the tournament, i did encourage the players to venture outside and play in the many tournaments organised by KLDA and SEDA but sadly, i did not see most of them taken part. I only saw other bankers like HSBC, AMbank, AGRO etc went on to play in most of the outside tourneys. My newly set up Team BROCCO'S went to take part in the HMKL 2012. I led the team who consists of my Son and two nephews and we did quite well in the event despite been defeated by Zuk Darters, Shanghai Darters and Brunei Team in the Group event. We wenton to take part in the Losers Pool and defeated a team from Melaka before been gunned down by KL team to qualify for the last 16. What an experience for the kids.

As for me i went on to play in the Melaka Open (Single event) and did not able to go to the 2nd round though :) I entered the Malaysian Open 2012 which was held in Johor's Amansari Hotel. Team HSBC also took part in the tourney. I was beaten by Kampung Air Brunei Darter in the grouping stage though. I took part in the last event of the Single series organised by KLDA / SEDA at Bamboo Pub, Jalan Ipoh where I managed to collect 5 points where I defeated Lim HP in my 1st match but i was beaten by Ahmad Idris in the next round and then damn incident took place in my match with Beeman where i was denied a decider leg by the Chalker, Ahmad Idris and the Officials as well because i had checked out at DOUBLE TWO but the chalker seem unnoticed while on duty and did not inform all that i have checked. By WDF Rules, it should have been a checkout despite other darts been threwn in view of the mistake committed by the chalker. Damn!!!! I was a bit mad at the silly decision made by them on the evening and straight went back home after that incident.
