my position. Adam said something like there was only one move possible, Bxc3.
But I actually thought there was another possible move, all I needed to do was
prevent the threatened ...Nxe2+ from being check! So this position was
definitely the crux of the game. I couldn't really decide which was best
over-the-board at the time, but I just couldn't pass up the challenge to at
least find out what if I didn't play the automatic recapture... plus I did
feel that my next move was a little better, but something about it made me
nervous. After the game, Adam told me he felt that nobody he knows (even
masters) would have played what I played. What can I say, I am who I am!} 11.
