Chessy news. Yesterday at OTB I played well, winning all my games. However, one game ended when my opponent made a significant blunder, such that he resigned. However, I suggested that we go back a couple moves and go at it from the previous position. At that point he rallied and beat me, though the victory was already mine. It was instructive, because then, being freer, we talked about our moves.
