Thanks for your move.

Sorry, I have to rub it in - I hope you take it in the kind hearted humour intended:

Congratulations on your g8 knight finally moving! Move 26 ain't that bad

After my d4 move way back, I had a mental running bet with myself on when that would finally happen hehe

I guess that with 1 minutes to go I should make up my mind and my move

So without further ado:

I guess that was a bit of a walk on the wild side

27...Nhf7 for us

Frankly I spent all of my analysis for the last week+ on Ra/h to c8.
So your moved surprised me.

However there's only one sensible move so without too much thought:

28. a5

I must compliment you on your 27. ..Nhf7.

I looked at it very superficially few days ago and spent most of my time considering either of your rooks to c8.

Now that I had some time to figure out why you've opted for Nhf7 it's by far better than what I've considered for you before. A strong move that brings some life to what I previously thought was a certain draw.

Now I need to start working on this game again

thank you.

Is it possible this game has flagged now, or is my clock wrong?
