Yesterday I played rounds 2 and 3 of the Chicago Open. Round 2, I felt that I was better in the opening, but somehow my advantage slipped away and I ended up in a drawn endgame. I'm disappointed that I let this one slip, but hopefully any of you looking at this will find the endgame instructive, as it illustrates how to make a draw down a pawn in an opposite colored Bishop ending. Please leave any questions, comments, or analysis below!
A disappointing result, but I learned for next time. Hope you found the endgame instructive though!
