Happy 200th

I've just recently turned 200 wins old here at chess.com, and I think I did feel a few shiny new IQ points added to my total.

I didn't do it without losing a fair amount of games, some real embarrassing ones too. But in honor of myself (and this momentous occasion), I am forgetting my dreadful losses and celebrating some of my wins!

This came in a tournament I played recently. A fine win against an opponent who actually played a very nice game against me in our other game, and he picked up the win. But I made a nice mating net in this game.

Gee, that felt so good.. I might just honor myself at 250 wins too!

Actually, I plan to post 2 or 3 very instructive losses in my archives. But for today... happy 200th to me!
