1st Correspondence Cup - Open division



This is.what happens when I move too fast.( for those who don't see it I missed Rxf7+ guaranteeing a draw)
For this reason, I choose not to participate in a tiebreaker with a TC of less than 2hrs./ 40 moves 30 min/ ea add.10 moves. Anotherwords, if tied you win.
Apart from the tactical battle in the endgame, I think that actually 15.f4? is the historical mistake for White that costed the game, as seen in a similar position from the game Winter vs Alekhine played in the infamous Nottingham 1936. As experience has been shown, in Correspondence Chess, such small but significant errors are enough to decide the outcome.
