I'm back!

It's been a few years since I have written a post. My apologies for that. But life has been good and the chess continues  

I want to look at an interesting miniature game I came across. One valuable skilll to learn when seeking to improve your chess is to know how and when to trade pieces.  A good general rule is to trade pieces when your opponents king is still in the center and avoid trades until your own king is safe. Here we see how White misjudged the moment to trade and got herself in a bad position.
