Ivan

I was very happy to learn that after Romania and Poland third country from the former Soviet bloc will have its representative in the World Scrabble Championship.
This time it's Slovakia - Poland's southern neighbour.

Ivan Pastucha is a 40-year-old technician from Ruzomberok and has won all three Slovak qualification tournaments thus assuring a place in the WSC 2011 taking place in October in Warsaw, Poland.

Veľa šťastia, Ivan! 

I'll be happy to meet you in Warsaw!
