Saratoga Open games

Howdy.

I thought I'd put up my games from the Saratoga Open held at Saratoga Springs Feb. 27-28, 2010 just past. I only played three rounds, but all of these games were interesting.

Next is Sells,P (2006) - Nyberg,D (1865), in which I fell to the man who ended up running away with the tournament. I felt as if I couldn\'t figure the tactics out with my own skills either at the board or later, so I had to lean on Fritz more than usual for the notes.

Oh, well, at least it was a fun game and a departure from my usual style.

And finally, my last-round game, LeCours,A (1958) - Sells,P (2006):
