Title: Jon Finkel
Post by: Fishsticks123 on August 26, 2012, 03:51:55 PM
I met Jon Finkel yesterday and got some stuff signed and played a match with him. I came extremely close to beating him. Anyone else have a similar account with a pro player? I played him sixth round yesterday at GP Boston.

I had a feature match with Sharfman at GP Salt Lake. I didnt know who he was until after. Cool guy. Later that day i beat a former pro who apparently used to stomp everyone but now is just ok. Not a cool guy. He was my round 6 of 7 in the Standard open that same weekend. It was funny beating BU control with BW tokens when everyone said id lose that match. I had recently shifted from control myself so i new what tricks not to fall for.

No, it wasn't a feture match. PrOs aren't only in feature matches. And sorry, he eas just using a D20.

We need some imtg swag.  Tshirt, play mat, or something.  I'd sport it my lgs, and any tourny I went to.

Agreed. I would buy a mat. It would go with my cell and bolas ones.
