I played a game against Rusudan Goletiani, rtg 2386, rank #21. She is WGM, you can read an article about her in wikipedia. I lost, but it was an interesting game to learn something - for me (It isn't exciting to win agaist weeker players), and I hope it can be interesting and instructively for others also! here is a game with coments.




























When I reconsider my strategy at whole, I think tht it was still wrong, even without a mistake 16... Bd6. Black has to much poteniially weak pawns on both sides. I am going to try variation 5... Re8, 6... Bf8 again, with improvements.

Thank you very much for sharing your game.  It was very informative.  Must have been a rush playing against a WGM.  Good for you.
