Game against IM Sean Nagle

It's not often one gets the opportunity to play an IM in a tournament game. I faced IM Sean Nagle in round 2 of the 2nd Bloomington Open in MN. Sean Nagle is an expert in the exchange variation. I thought I was doing fine, until I castled, when his pawns came rolling down and I was forced to damage my structure.

Etc.
