I'm about to leave Sarajevo tomorrow morning, the EICC 2012 in Plovdiv, Bulgaria is 10 hours drive away. After the Charleroi open this is my second serious FIDE tournament but this one is FAAAR stronger. There are 15 GMs with 2700+ ELO and the average rating is 2444! Out of the 350 participants there are maybe 10 players of my strength the rest are way stronger. My best ever result in a tournament game was a draw against a 2100 player but there are more than 300 players over ELO 2100 here. So much about my winning chances but I go for fun and for real tournament experience.
Wish me luck!
