VII Estonian champion - Indrek Nuume Board member of LHV Bank Indrek Nuume
won the 25th November Estonian VII dicefootball Championship, after
defeating Katri Lillemäe 5:4 in extra
time.
Indrek Nuume concluded his success was
down to ‘Beginner’s luck: “I have to thank the reminder that
the championship is held today, because although I had promised to
take part, I forgot to mark it in my calendar. It was a time well
spent.”
Indrek Nuume got through his qualifiers
with 2nd place and was 2:1 better than the winner of the
qualifiers Herol Riiberg. In the 1/16 finals Nuume defeated the
patron of dicefootball Mart Poom on penalties 5:4 (after extra time
ended 1:1). Nuume then proceeded with a match against LHV Bank
chairman of the board Erki Kilu and won 4:1. In semifinals Nuume
defeated Marko Mäekivi 5:4.
Erki Kilu had his winnings too – in
the 1/16 finals he defeated Krista Meri, the triple world Coctail
Champion. Krista won her qualifiers with a big success: three wins
and one draw.
Former top player Mart Poom and current
players did rather well: in addition to Mart Poom, Mikk Reintam and
Herol Riiberg won their qualifiers. Reintam lost in the 1/16 finals
to the finalist Lillemägi 3:6 and Riiberg
lost to Sell 3:4 in the Semis after extra time. Rauno Sappinen took
3rd place in qualifiers, but didn’t get through.
Championship bronze went to Marko
Mäekivi with 2:0 win against Kadri-Leen
Sell.
