A 1300's First Win Against A Titled Player!

We all dream of the moment we will have the zenith of our underdog stories- when finally we are able to produce a spark.

I accomplished this when I registered my first-ever win against a titled player in the most unexpected way! This story will show you that masters too have chinks in their armor.

I found FM Renatoforf in a 10-Min Arena and knew I was in for a challenge. 

I tried an opening for the first time but was soon worse, but a sniper bishop came to the rescue.

TLDR? Here's the game!

Let's hope that this becomes a frequent occurrence now.

How did I do? Your feedback is highly appreciated, especially as this is my first post. 

Thanks for reading!

I gained 16 points but lost 15 points in the very next game by losing to a 900 I guess but that's life lol

that's cuz it adheres to the ancient philosophy of gigachadism

Also the game was amazing. Though, i would think an 1800 titled player would know better than to take without thinking.

In case anyone wonders, the game is real, the opponent is really an FM. It's on his archive. 👍
