King's Indian: Bhagyadhar, Karthekiyan, Ivan, Abhyudhaya

I had a great time. The tournament conditions were first rate. 

Our team finished with 2.5/5.0

I went 3-2=0

1. Loss 2171 DAVID TIANJIAN PENG
2. Win 1121 ERIC DOTSON HENRY HOBSON JR
3. Loss 2046 ARSHAQ SALEEM
4. Win 1867 KYLE J MILES
5. Win 1900 AKHIL KALGHATGI

This is my round 1 loss

I am doing good here. The endgame was probably drawn. (At least that's what GM Gurevich told me) but we were both down to about 2 min each, when I made the horrible 40...f6??

Karthikeyan's position against GM Gurevich in round  1 (0-1)

Round 1

Karthikeyan had what looked like good attacking chances against Pete Karagianis in round 3, but could not hold the ending. (0-1)

Round 2  

Karthikeyan's exchange sac in round 4 vs AYDIN TURGUT (0-1)

Let's see I got me some single pawns, double pawns and even triple pawns! (ROBERT LONCAREVIC vs GEORGE KRASNOPOLSKIY 1-0 Round 4)

Expert + Open, Under 2000 & Unrated : Marshall Town, IS Feb.8 2014

You can see the write-up by Hank here.

I was the house player for the Expert + section.  Since there were an even number in the first 2 rounds, I played in the unrated Chess.com meet up event. Results here

In the last round of the Expert + Open I played Mark Kende. After playing horribly and losing a piece on move 22. I almost pulled a Carlesn (See this great video by GM  Daniel King).  but drew in the end.

My game is here.
