Round 4 - EUTender Master Tourney - Cambridge Springs Defense
In round 4 I played with Evgeny Gumanny from Israel. I equalized with the Cambridge Springs Defense, but in a critical moment I took on d4 instead of c4. The position opened up and he had a better development. He found 2 nice intermediate moves and got a hige positional advantage. I sacrificed a pawn to go to an endgame. He played too soft and allowed me favorable exchanges.
We got a bishop and pawns endgame where I blocked his extra pawn.
