National Junior Blitz Chess Championship 2009
7 out of 9 points
ZM Ben Karpov marked his return to the top-flight with a storming performance in the National Junior Blitz. The local junior master attained 7 points out of a possible 9 on Sunday.
On-lookers reportedly said that Ben Karpov literally breezed through the tournament's first 4 games before dropping point in the 5th. However he recovered and won his next three consecutive games and picked up 5th place (out of 200+) in the tournament.
But would Karpov stay on in the industry ? Or will he still quit after all ? We'll find out

Where on Earth is Ben ???
Ben is officially declared gone !
The organizer are getting frantic running everywhere looking for the National star. News that Ben might have retired early spread like wild fire, it is reportedly said that the young star has been hit with a series of off-board issues that wore his moral down to bare bones, while it is not exactly sure of what is it we believe that it might have linked with a party that the official have been trying to contact for further investigations.
It is also reported that Ben might have already made up his mind to withdraw from this saturday's National Blitz Championship.
It is two-weeks since Ben had last pushed a pawn.
