It's game against Rodriguez was good, but this one was really pathetic. What the
heck was Ricardi thinking when he played the opening? He fell for a fairly basic
tactic on move 7 leaving him much worse and by move 13 he's down a pawn. After
that it was just a matter of time. Really not a lot to say about it other than
it was a point for Tiger.
