Blundered my rook early, but didn’t let it get me down and found the win!

A superb win Nicholas after losing the rook. The eval bar was a joy to watch in those last few moves as it swung back and forth before win. Pure tenacity!

I have lost my rook to that bishop too many times!! I felt your pain, for sure!! Seeing the game from white’s perspective really helped me see the weaknesses of Owen’s defense. Certain moves need to be played, otherwise the weaknesses become very easy to exploit (i.e. Nf6). Your opponent had you on the ropes for a while, and I was reliving past trauma, because I’ve been there!! It’s a hopeless feeling. But, it was nice how you turned it around and snagged the win. The queen sac at the end would have been sooo nice, but you played it well and I was happy to see you prevail. Nice job 👍 Please keep sharing your games with Owen’s defense and Stonewall openings for further study.
