GAME 4, my hardest victory
I didn`t really move that many places down on the rankings after my defeat in game 3, but to keep myself high on the list and maybe have a shot at being amongst the three best players, I can`t have one more defeat. My opponent has no rating, so I have no clear indication of how good he is. The game is quite even. I know that as of now, my strength lies in endgame play. So I try to reduce some pieces by exchanges, but my opponent is reluctant to do so, and only when he is forces into it. He barely runs out of time and my time is not that good either. 40 moves in the first two hours, then we get more. After I make my 40th move, I discreetly asks him if he wants a draw. I walk away, letting him look over the board in peace and quite. When I come back he has made his move, and I guess has an idea of how to win the game. After a few more moves I place him in check mate. (He ends up in 23rd place overall).
