TEMSE - In the old days. when the Belgian Championship was played with Chinese Classical Rules, it was the Dutch who massivily attended this tournament, and at the time they always were the winners as well. But after Mahjong Competition Rules were introduced in the championship, those golden days seemed to have passed. In 2006, András Boda from Hungary was the winner, and in the next event (in 2009, after a two years' break) Lionel Legaie from France grabbed the title.
Today, finally the Dutch re-claimed the tournament. The victory was for Diana Westdijk and Marianne Croeze was the runner-up. Third prize was for Alexander Doppelhofer from Austria.
First Belgian player was Theo De Rijcke at position number 8, so he won the Belgian title. Lionel Legaie, the winner of last year, did not play.
48 players participated in the event, which for the Dutch also was a qualifier for the 2011 European Championship in Venice, Italy. The better part of the competitors (28 players) were Dutch.

NICE GUY-NICE CHAMPION!
Congratulations from your former partners.
Sylvie, Sven, Kevin...
Par contre, la réplique n'était pas drôle. Informative, peut-être (donc ayant quoi comme but au juste ?), mais ce n'est pas de l'humour, ni du premier, ni du troisième, ni du énième degré.

Ce n'est pas parce qu'on rit que c'est drôle.
This contrasts with the EMA MCR country ranking, which is led by France.
The "Poker Face" won again, congrats to him.
When can we drop this sick hyperbole once and for all? I mean, it seems like you aren't even playing mahjong to have fun anymore.
IT > FR. "Yeah but what about..." IT > NL (with innuendo that FR > NL). Sounds more like a penis-measuring contest than a game we can play together...
french 34/96 = 35%
dutch 27/96 = 28%
italian 7/96 = 07%
In the Top Ten :
french 6/10 = 60%
dutch 3/10 = 30%
italian 1/10 = 10%
And it's not because of dutch players if Marco lose 2 times 2 points... WE have done our job ;)
He was just the best, once again : congratulations to you Marco !
