Playing a Master

Submitted by ih8sens on Wed, 08/19/2009 at 11:24pm.

A couple days back I had the privledge of playing a correspondence game with a National Master here at chess.com.  It's rare I get the chance, so I looked forward to the opportunity.  As I suppose you would guess, the one and only game I had ever played at correspondence time controls vs. a master in the past was a decisive loss, despite spending countless hours strategizing and calculating.  This game ended a little differently.  I've annotated it fully for your enjoyment.

This was really nice :) He aimed for a quick draw and that cost him the game. A very usual psychological phenomenon :)
