today i played the second part of the Match against Simon Corbeil.
i had LOT of pressure playing 2 consecutive games with black - if i lose 1 game, he will have 5points.. and if i couldnt get him to lose. he would've win... even with a tie.
So i had to tie, or win these games - i want to mention that, at high level - playing with black really matters, it's a clear disadvantage as you do not give the tempo and do not decide what kind of game it will be (closed, semi-open, open)

i won this match - but i really been nervous. My next opponent isnt as intimidating. He has a lower rating, and from the games of him i've analysed - he's not as good as simon were.

Simon had the same playstyle - agressive and ruthless, sacrifices and risky moves - and he was REALLY prepared for me - he knew most of my habits - he knew all my openings.

At last game, i used a completly different opening. I loved to see how i troubled him.
he wasnt ready for a change of opening at all.

we used the same openings for the 5 previous games. i tought it would be tricky to go into something he probably didnt over-analysed.

I'm embarassed to say that I went to my daughter's elementary school graduation and it was so touching that it made me shed a tear..or 2...or 3. The band played songs about growing up, and moving on to new things and stuff...made me realize all of a sudden that my baby is on her way to being all grown up. Seems like it was just yesterday but it was actually 20 years ago to this day that I myself graduated from elementary school. Unbelieveable how time flies...

You know when you stare at something for too long you get so annoyed and bored of it no matter how awesome it is? Well that's how I feel with most of my work at this point. I just wanna get it done and over with and never look at it ever again... or think about it ever again. lol
