GAME 1, getting off to a good start
My first game of the tournament and my first OTB tournament in years. My opponent makes a mistake very early in the game giving me a pawn. I kept the pressure up continuously. I lay a trap for him, hoping he is greedy and goes pawngrabbing. He does, and looses his rook. After that he never recovers. (He ends up in 13th place overall).
