Overall: A long (four hours+), hard-fought, enjoyable game. I had some inaccuracies in the opening that resulted in awkward positions, but I managed the middle-game maneuvering reasonably well. A mistake at the first time control left me down a pawn in a rook ending with pawns on both sides. I did a good job increasing my king and rook activity, though, and I think I had good drawing chances. But I didn’t leave myself enough time for calculation at the end.

Hi folks,
I’ve just about had enough of chess blogging. If this site disappears in a few days, you’ll know why.
