Thanks for your take, Petra.

In this game, I blundered a lot! But because of a lucky rook-sacrifice (my opponent had other options than taking my rook, but couldn't resist it), the game ended in a stalemate!

Hi rt25!  I saw that you accomplished a draw in this game after some repetitive moves with you bishop. Nice job!thumbup.png

Nice one.  They missed h6 and paid the price.  Hope you are holding up OK over there.

I got lucky in this game: I was playing with the black pieces and thought I was losing the game - but found the stalemate

Looks like you played a strong game. Seems like maybe white got too excited and lazy. Way to hang in there.
