NOT WHAT IT SEEMED

This is a crucial position from my game today. I am black and it is me to move. At the time I thought it seemed like an easy win, plus I was well ahead on time!

However, I could only manage to agree a draw after quite a few more moves. 
Had to change the picture the first position I posted was inaccurate. Looks like I missed a win. Too bad!

I had to use Danny King`s brain today but it still was not enough to get me a win.

I do not cheat by using hidden computers, I cheat by using Victor Bologan`s brians.  I have all three of this DVD series and have found them very useful, particularly in the past week.

ISLE OF MAN VIDEO 6

All the Minor, Major and Masters Chess tournaments were played in the one venue today.

It turns out the venue happened to be in the impressive theatre auditorium in the Villa Marina. It is a lovely setting, although some people were not impressed with the lighting in certain parts of the hall.

Tommorow`s tournaments will be in the same grand location.
