Texan Tango 1

Was waiting for a friend to come back from work, so had two short games with a similarly ranked player on Yahoo, from Texas, where Houston is located. This game was interesting as I somehow lost one piece after another... even though i kept making favorable exchanges... and my major pieces were slashed and lost. The black queen makes the same mistake as the female lead in the Immortal Game. In this game, I am most delighted by move 19... because it was a small step for pawn-kind, but a giant step for the game in retrospect.
