Hey all, in preparation for our upcoming OTB tournament, my training partner and I decided to play a game in the correct time format, OTB, and noting our moves on the scoresheet. It was an intense battle that I'm genuinely proud of, and ended in a draw. Hope you enjoy this high-level catalan!

Comments below are very welcome!

we are playing in the East Devon Chess Congress - it's nasty. 40 minutes for 40 moves, then a bonus 20 mins. 5 games in three days
