In all seriousness..  I got serious in this match, turned off my music and disabled the chat.  I really wanted to win and get some points (this guy was rated 200 points higher than me).  This is really how I need to play EVERY online match.  The game ended in a draw... I missed a move in the endgame which probably would have won me the game.  The move was 56 ...Qd4 !! instead of  ...Qb5.  The opening was a bit unusual to say the least... I'm not very familiar with Reti-type Openings.  On move 41 I found the only move I could make to stay alive (possibly even a winning move) ...h2!!  I need to analyze the game with Fritz... I might write more posts about this game.

There will be another day!
