Game 6 from the Continental Chess Open (and a picture of me)

So! One more round to go. Malachi and me were still the leaders of the tournament with 4.5/5, but there were two competitors who were just behind with 4/5. The pressure was on, and I had to keep a close eye on Malachi's game as well. Knowing the result of his game would completely influence the circumstances of the placings. If he would lose, all I would need is a draw to win. If he would draw, I would need a win to win. If he would win, I'd need to win to tie for 1st. In every scenario, I would want to win, obviously. 

My opponent, Jason, was defeated by Malachi a few rounds earlier and was thirsty for some fake Greek blood! We were all thirsty for blood and money in this last round; there was much on the line. Will the fake Greek mythical legendary wannabe poser have a chance to win it all? Stay tuned..
