Road to the Grandmaster title - April GM round 2 - London system
In round 2 I played with the young Hungarian FIDE-Master Ferenc Gombocz.
I played the London system and I got an advantage, because I blocked his a6-b7 pawn with my a5 pawn and I got a passed pawn on d4. I did not find the way to increase my advantage and used too much time and in the time trouble I lost the d4 pawn and also got a bad position. I made a cool piece sacrifice in the end, but he defended well and won with a nice rook sacrifice:
