So, i havent been playing that well latley in terms of winning games but my understanding of the board has improved alot over the last few weeks. Most of my losses have been because of time, but i have only been playing blitz games on Playchess.com. (mostly sub 5min games [not bullet tho]) In general my play isint too bad.
I just played this game against a lower rated player but although i have a material advantage throughout, i had to be careful as my opponent played somewhat aggressive so i had to keep an eye out. He attacked my vulnerable f7 pawn and hovered around my king looking to sniff out a result. Eventually i got the break tho and in time trouble (20 seconds left with 3 sec increment per move) i found a very pretty move 29.Ne3+!!. This move wins instantly! Im happy about this as i seem to be spotting these types of mates in my games when they crop up.
Hope you enjoy the game. Feedback would be nice, and all comments welcome.
