First Win Over A Master
Sort:
Nice game, congrats on the win I beat my first Master OTB this past July hope i can get some more wins against them.
I almost blew the game there near the end. You get those nerves and you say to yourself is this really happening.
Gud win..Congratz
I definitely paused before playing Rxd7. I am glad I didn't just play Rad1. I knew I had to go for it.
Congratulations!
How old is Feuerstein? He seems to have been around for ages.

He was born in 1935 .
He's a National Master? (I don't really understand American titles)

He is a NM , yes but his floor keeps him from going under 2200 no matter how bad his results , a travesty really. He is 77 or 78 years old . I salute him that he still has the energy/desire to keep playing tournament chess !

If it's what he loves. I see he is FIDE 2088 and he was 10 points away from getting CM, that's a bit unlucky.
And as to the floor thingy, I guess that's one of the reasons for rating deflation.
I doubt he really cares about the CM title. IIRC he was +2400 USCF for a while back in the 1980s,
Funny thing was I lost the remaining 3 games afterwards. But this felt so sweet.
