If 1300 is your actual rating then winning a draw with someone 900 points higher is quite an acheivment.

Great play, Draw is not a bad result. Though it is true that u coukd have won the game easily... I may see ur rating get increased in a couple of months. Good game of chess !!!🙂

the queen takes back - IMVHO, 2B ought to be better than 1N & 1B. Most of the game is directly from a database (up to move 31 i seem to recall).

edit: and if memory serves me, Karpov was black.
