I really missed out on time “gainers” in this game. Long after some early shuffling with a clueless light-squared bishop, an instructive endgame was produced highlighting a “tempo pawn”. This was a 5|0 time control game, where I was playing with the white pieces. The opening played was the Pirc Defense, Classical variation.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
