Thanks for the feedback
@Martin_1001 ! :)
This was a 5 min blitz game between me 1012 and 2024 so was always likely to be a junk game (hence my a3) but like you, I found it interesting too.
I see what you mean about time but being such a good player felt the only chance I had (not that there was any ! ) was to move quicker than normal. Generally I can barely think quick enough for Rapid as I am not even a "modest" player.
And it was clear he was toying with me but I like the fact he did as it gave me food for thought.
I do remember I was so exasperated by move 32 that it led to my blunder.
My evaluation of the position was non existant really - due to time and my lack of ability.
But guess what I take from it is - opportunites do exist when I perhaps assumed they didn't - imagining the game as symetrically even (or at least not knowing any better).
So many thanks - I greatly appreciate your feedback in this regard with the Qxc4 move and missed 20... Rfd8
It's given me the answer I was searching for - thanks again ! :)
