Qb6
8.Rc1
Note: am notating this wth very little help from Fritz so I can just explain my think t/o the game how wrong or sometimes right it was. In this pos. I thought that I could get away with a move like this, I felt after Q-b2, I would be better usure what my planned follow up was, I think n-b5 was in my plan.
8...Nbd7
9.e3
maybe e4 would be better.
9...Qxb2
10.Nb5
Nxe5
11.Bxe5?!
I think d take was better.
11...e6
12.Nc7+
I played this because well I went this fare and I at least wanted him not to be able to 0-0, this was my first game of the event it showed with rust and uneven play, this game became a rollercoaster of mistakes for both.

17.fxg4
Bxh1
maybe f6 first, also note my first three games are at g/60, come to find out I played much better with more time or at least I think I did.
18.Bxg7
Rxc7
by the way I understood I was losing but felt it was a little messy and may get a blunder back from my opponet.
19.Rxc7
Kxc7
20.Bxh8
Qxa2?!
ok this helps.
21.Be5+
q-c1+ was better I think.
21...Bd6??
this is why I played B-e5 hoping for this blunder, plus time was a factor.
22.Qc1+!
Kd7
23.Bb5+!

my opponent said he missed the mate, I did see that all along.
24...Kf6

Kg5
26.Bf4+
Kxg4
27.Be2+
Q-e1 was better, time is very short.
27...Kf5
28.Qd1?!
Q-e1 would be better.
28...Be4
29.Bg4+

30.Ke1
I am not finding the right moves in this time scramble both had less than a minute.

ok you will like this move, k-h4 oops illegal move my opponent states it I agree pause the clock we raise our hand for the director, at this time I forget what the penalty was, I remember soon after that you add 2min. my opponent did not know either, but anyway I look and see oh if any other move I get mated so before the director comes I offer draw!! My opponent accepts?? we each had seconds on our clock, an interesting blunder filled game, at this point I was wondering if I would win a game in this event :)?!
