It's a good thing your opponent did not know about one of Igor's favorite sayings, "To take is a mistake!" Well done for hanging in there and for showing us it's possible to get a good position against an IM.
Luck or Fighting Spirit? Round 5 Recap from La Plagne Open
Sort:
Hey Everyone,
Just uploaded the recap of my 5th-round game from the tournament I played in La Plagne.
It was one of those games where things were not going my way... until they suddenly were.
In the video, I break down what happened, where I was struggling, and how I managed to turn things around.
Was it luck? Grit? Or maybe a mix of both?

Would love to hear what you think – especially if you've had similar “hold on for dear life” games.
More recaps coming soon!
Cheers,
Ben
