I am currently competing in an open OTB tournament, yesterday it was 2 rounds-day, and that's why I missed to comment 2 WC games - I had to rest, and go to the beach and prepare for the games.
Yesterday I won in both rounds.
Game 1
Find winning trick for White here--->
Game 2
Checkmate in the centre of the table --->
White was forcing win in this ending and managed first to confuse himself (and lose Pawn on a3 by oversight), and then he played Ke4 a tempo...
My first opponent was British retired and didn't take opening seriously (he could have made me sacrifice a piece for attack, but he lost without fight), and the other (the self-checkmated one) was a member of Kasparov media team, a kind of an opposition politician in Russia. He has decent rating, but there is no chess games of his on the net, not single one. His strength is, I would say, ca, 1800, and I think that the rating is only a cover.
During our game, he had a small suitcase with him, kept it close to his body carefully, and each time he went to men's room he took the suitcase with him.
There are several men with same last name at the tournament, probably a spy family on secret task for CIA or MI6.
In the other game, the question is did White have a win here-->
He just played 43. f5 and I replied 43. ...Rd6
He captured a tempo 44. fxg6, and I was afraid of Bishop move and possible f6 later...
