A chess game

Here's a link to a game that I play last week. I think I played reasonably well, and ended up drawing an 1850 (and I'm 1384, right now). Although I was up material at the end of the game, I was pretty low on time, so I offered a draw.

This was played at International Master Dean Ippolito's new chess school in Branchburg, NJ, at a time control of G/55 + 5 second delay. Dean has a clean and attractive school in a strip mall, next to a deli and a pizzeria. Dean and his wife Dawn run the place, and they are a friendly and generous couple. I encourage you to check it out!

King and Pawn puzzle


Here's an interesting game I played back in October. It lead to a pure king-and-pawn endgame. A key position is displayed here - it is not too hard to find the winning move for white, although I didn't find it in the game.

Click here to replay this game. Notes here are mostly by Dennis Monokroussos, although he incorporates some things that I said (referring to me as RB in his notes, and himself as DM).
