Yu-Gi-Oh Regionals (The Duelist Genesis Season) 11/8/08

[motsuji]

51 players showed up for the Regionals for The Duelist Genesis Season. The number was very disappointing due to a number of the Outer Island people not being able to play, probably due to the tough economic conditions.

Round 1 is underway.

Well it's over and Chris Ventura won in Game 3 in a crazy turn which you will be able to see on video soon.

Wade just took game 2 as Chris ran into a Magic Cylinder with only 150 life points. They are just starting game 3.
