Well, if the first two rounds of this tournament were signs that I really am not all that bad of a chess player (Relatively, of course)... my third round is a sign that I've been guessing all this time.
No, seriously... it was awful.
Don't be fooled by the rating and my bad play, Michael must be a solid player; he beat a 1400 this morning. Impressive for a person who is playing up a section (There's a U1300, I'm in U1500.)
I'll survive the night... but I'm not going to be happy about it! I will be better TOMORROW!
Happy playing.
