We had only one player from Vietnam in the 1st Tournament.
It's DocCo VoTinh from Hanoi. What can we say about this "lonely warrior".
He started well and had chances to beat experienced American player Mark Mammel.
But afterwards that DocCo unexpectedly has left all his games :confused:
Well, at least he was enough brave to challenge strong renju players :)
