My 3rd match with him. I go morph in both games and finally bring out gravekeeper 3rd match. On 3rd match I got out breaker and break his facedown but he rings my breaker for 1900. I'm at 100. The judges were all caught up with the fact I had 100, I reborn my Breaker and set my sinster in def. I had summon 2 monster, I didn't know my self. I forgot about the ring. =| I then come back with a cheif and a spear soilder.
