i think you will be ok waiting until your booked departure date, why would immigration worry about someone just ignoring the petty rules of the country, when they have an important fight to prepare for. i think all the other posters do not realise the importance of your fight, when compared to a silly immigration rule.

failing that the fighting practise will do you some good in the immigration detention centre,

Agreed steve.......petty immigration rules versus important fight, no contest.

...and call me crazy, but it seems counterintuitive to grant six month tourist visas only to require people to leave and come back every 60 days. Now I'm going to go spend money in China instead of keeping it in Thailand. But I guess that's just the way it is. Fair enough.

Did you not read the conditions of the visa you received before you applied for it.

Not much point moaning about it when it's your own fault
