The Pro Tour Qualifier

Well, FYI, I'm an avid player of the trading card game Magic: The Gathering and recently attended the Magic: The Gathering Pro Tour Qualifier in London. It was a real blast and I managed to scrape through to the finals (barely). Too bad I didn't win though, the first prize was a trip to play in the Pro Tour in Kuala Lumpur which I really, really wanted! Ah well... at least I got into the Top 8! Here's some of the pictures of the event:

Lost the first round in the finals to the guy on the far right... I put up a good fight at least. For some reason I felt really pressured to perform which made me not perform well, if that makes sense. Got a few booster packs (11 Future Sight packs I think) but I enjoyed myself thoroughly. Right now I'm preparing for the Morning Tide pre-release happening 1st Feb so wish me the best of luck.
