Sunday Games 5.18.08 - I won one!!!!

So I had better success this past weekend than my first tournament. I walked away with one victory and on draw. I was able to beat Mr. Robertson in the endgame with both of us only having about 4 seconds on the clock. My draw was with Mr. Amos and it should have been a win for me but he caught my king in the corner and a repetitive check. Last week I learned about the clock and this week I learned about draws. One step at a time though. I thought I'd be slick and take on Jorge Martinez with the Budapest Gambit but he quickly refuted the gambit in the first few moves. I'll have to go back and study those vids again. We ended up in an endgame where he was up 2 pawn and all my pieces were cramped. I don't know what happened with my game against Mr. Campbell. I had the more active position, control of the only open file, both bishops and a passed pawn. I have the analysis of that game at home and will definitely go over it today. Great tournament, I couldn't be happier. Below are my games, one game is annotated by Fritz. You'll have to weed through the comments. I'll post up a better copy tonight.
