A draw against a stronger player :-)

After 28 moves, and in what looked to me like a drawish position, with plenty of potential for a weaker player (me) to mess up, my opponent kindly offered a draw.

At move 9, I left my preparation, which would have had me play my knight to the centre forcing a trade, and went for pinning the knight instead. This lead to a series of trades, which was exactly what I was looking for in simplifying the position as much as possible, while making as many threats as possible and keeping the initiative for as long as possible.
