So I posted this in my blog, along with the rest of my tournament games, a few days back... but I've decided I'm not getting nearly enough attention :P. 

Here's a nice annotated game played in the last round of this years Canadian Amateur championships.  It's pretty violent.  Hope you like it.

Fantastic finish to the tournament!

I rather appreciate your analysis.  For me, the biggest remaining question is why is 21...Re4 such a large threat that White sacs her queen for the rook?

Bg5+ was the threat.

Interesting... the line I've given is the 'draw' line.  There are a few tries.  Black can play a quick Ne4 and Nxc3 just to change the structure up a bit as well.

An eventual Nc2-d4 was the goal... but Ne4 stuffed him.
