Hence my awful blunder on move 13 vs. Arthur, and also my resignation (NOT time forfeit) at the first point where the game might not even have been lost. (Two years earlier, I made a similar blunder in the last round of the USATE vs. a 1600, and was lucky to draw.)<BR/><BR/>See you all there this year. I'll try to save a little energy for the last round.<BR/><BR/>-Dave Gertler (semi-retired FM)Big Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070711870235631052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-18823216957805591082007-03-25T02:52:00.000-04:002007-03-25T02:52:00.000-04:00Thanks for the 2007 USATE link, enyca.
