GAME 6, my best defensive play
At this point I am playing at the lead tables. Which means I am getting more of an audience looking over my shoulder. Not just the Class 5 players stretching their feet but others. Not that it bothers me. When I play, I am completely concentrated and I barely notice anything of what is happening at the boards around me. This is the game where I felt most attacked. Before I even knew what was happening, my opponent had an attack lined up. The game was a ongoing battle of one attack after the other coming from my opponent and playing a very accurate defense on my part and securing my position whenever I had a chance to. My opponent sacrifized first one pawn and then another. But for almost every defensive move I made, my position became increadably solid. In the end, there where no more attacks coming and he couldn`t get his pawns back. He asked for a draw, but I declined. I finally got an attack going and he resigned a few moves later. (He ended up on 15th place overall).
