Bummer, but if had to end. there's little shame in losing to a strong GM.

Damn that guy must have been steam powered

No , just speculative overly relaxed manouvering by chess studd led to a gradual decline of his position and the other Guy getting the upper hand.

Full credit to the GM he played really well, kept a tight position.

Quite impressive performance from NomenNescio.

Isn't 20. Nd5 a lot better than 20. Rd2? Nd5 seems to stop him from playing d5 himself, and seems like a pretty nice square for the knight. and if he goes Nxd5 or Bxd5, after cxd5 i think you look pretty solid either way, or maybe with a small advantage.

By the way I just stumbled across your videos, curtains, and I'm really enjoying them. you're not only a very good player and a funny dude but you're also refreshingly down to earth. keep up the good work.
