I have unexpectedly (and, no doubt temporarily) found myself with a Chess.com rating over 2100. Here is the game that put me there, blunders and all. It's pretty entertaining, IMHO. Your comments welcomed.

After the exchange of Queens (forced) he's down quite a bit in material. He's got two rooks and 5 pawns -- 15 points, vs. a rook and three minor pieces plus 4 pawns -- 18 or 19 points (depending on how you value the minor pieces). He could soldier on, but it would be a very tough endgame.

FWIW, if you actually click through the moves in the game quite a few of them have comments -- more so in the last half of the game. The comments don't show up in the move list.
