(openPR) - In a little while he has to pack his bag again. For 11th until 17th August is the Skat event in SeePark Kirchheim next. Hans Cordes, living in Bremen, rubs his hands. „This will be a thrilling week in Hesse“, he says full with anticipation. Many excellent Skat players are expected to join the Skat week, because the first three places of the SeePark-Cup and the three best positions of the Skat-Online League Single Mastership qualify directly for the final round of Skatropoly.
Hans Cordes executes those qualification tournaments. With 20 years experience as Skat tournament executive he has the necessary sovereignty for this job. Among the Skat players Hans Cordes is not only acknowledged for knowing the rules or his competent decisions as tournament executive. The acting Mixed World Champion (partner Claudia Then) is also an expert of the Skat game himself. „It is some time ago, I guess about 4 years, someone told me about Skat-Online. I thought, I should give a try.“ The winner of the North American Champion 2008 is ever since a frequent visitor of the Skat tournament platform. The tournament execution of the Skat-Online League Single Mastership links him closer to the community of online Skat players. „Sometimes it would be nice to have more players giving their real names“, holds the passionated Skat player. Finally there is no namelessness in a normal offline tournament. At last the online players can meet personally at the Skat week and the Skat party Friday night is a opportunity for a conversation beyond the chats.
