Yesterday I played my second county match for Greater Manchester. Last month I managed a very long and hard-fought draw that I ought to have been able to win, but failed to find a couple of crucial moves in the endgame. It really annoyed me, as the endgame is normally the strongest aspect of my game.
In yesterday's game, I got to play one of my favourite lines against the Sicilian, and was pleased to see that my opponent didn't know the best way to handle it. He mis-calculated early on, and gave me a rather easy win - I just had to be careful and keep up the pressure, but the result was never in doubt.
