I thought the following game was very interesting in that it has instructive middle game content as well as end game content (well instructive at my level anyway ).
Some interesting aspects of the game:
1. It is a bit off-beat variation of the Pirc
2. In the middle game some tactics were completely missed
3. At the end game both Rogerio and I misread the position and thought black had the advantage - we were convinced this was a win for black
4. Had the game continued properly, it would have been a queen race resulting in both sides queening
5. I am convinced this is a draw - backed up by running a tournament pitting Houdini v. Houdini from the queened position
