The
game itself got wild when Boris carelessly castled long in a
known
position, I have a strong attack after Qa5 and White is already in
trouble. I know Rxe4 made a lot of noise and some people just point out
that it wasn't necessary, yeah i could have played d5 or even Rb3 which
i considered, but Rxe4 was the most forcing continuation and i didn't
see anything wrong with it. After spending lots of time calculating
Qxd6 as there were no other moves, i was quite upset with myself for
playing the panicky Bh6+? and forgetting that Bf4 doesn't work right
away
because of Qxf6 threating mate. I saw Re8 but got nervous about my time
and decided to check first...After Boris missed Qxb8 and played Qa3(
which was the 2nd bes move and shouldn't be criticized too harshly)
white achieved a better endgame. I was low on time and it seemed like
Boris tried to flag me, if thats the case it was a big mistake
because
i play bullet all the time and 4 minuted seemed like a lot of time to
have. Anyways, Boris played very fast and not very precisely and i was
first able to equalize and then when he committed a few errors in the
rook+endgame i just had an easy win. Despite being honored for game of
the week selection i must say that i was extremely surprised by it.
