Round 7 and 8 of the SixDays Master Tourney

Round 7 and 8 of the SixDays Master Tourney

In round 7 I played against FIDE-master Zalan Nemeth. We played the same opening last year like today. I improved the opening, but in the middlegame I made a bad exchange of pawns. After mass exchanges I got a rook and 2 knights versus queen and pawn endgame which I was able to win:

In round 8 my opponent FIDE-master Levente Miszler played 3.a6 in the queen's gambit. I used a lot of times to figure out the best plan, too much time. I got into a very interesting knight versus bishop endgame with passed pawns on both sides. First it was equal, then lost and finally winning:

Tomorrow morning will be the final game against Laurin Perkampus.
