Nice game this evening, good opening, won a piece after my opponent miscalculated, and then all I had to do is stifle my opponents counterplay. Having done that, deal with a couple of last gasp tricks, and then finish the game off with my extra rook.

During the game I considered this line up to Kg3, but missed the simple ...g5, as at that stage I had already accepted the outcome of the game. Shaun outplayed me in the opening. Against the 17.
