Second game of the day: Oh gosh, what a doubtful finish! Doubtful because it makes me doubt whether I will ever increase my game! I reached the follow
position with great ease (not straight forward as such, but nevertheless
without heavy thinking or time-consuming calculations):
White to move
Komodo evaluates this as +2.2; even the worst move (which I
played) leaves White with +1. So how – ON EARTH – could I lose this position
only 3 moves from now????
Even one move prior to my blunder I am still +1.4:
Now f6 is the route to victory (which I didn´t take)… 8-(
Shall I add that my opponent only had 40 seconds left for
some 15 moves (and I still had some 20 minutes)? No, better not…
It is very hard to draw any sort of constructive conclusion
from this game. I new my bishop and the half open g-file were my biggest assets. Nevertheless, I continuously did my very best NOT to exploit this easily winning strengths… A
very tough loss!
