Heart of Tennessee Open 2009
This was my first tournament in over four years. Hosted by the Rutherford County Chess Club. I hadn't prepared for competitive play, and found the experience to be wonderful, frustrating, and delightfully exhausting. I finished 2-2-1. I will exclude the first game from this post as the win was too easy and not very educational.
This last one was a heartbreaker for me - A win would have let me tie for 1st place in Class D. A tactical mistake cost me this win.
