I haven't had much time to develop my game because of work and I have been running on 2-4 hrs of sleep so I really played bad. I ran my game through Fritz 7 and very few of my moves were judged to be bad. I really didn't have a strategy when playing and that does show, plus I missed an obvious fork. I could have hit the rewind button, but I never do that - I just play on instead. I decided recently that a 7 minute game is not giving me the time to evaluate my moves well enough. Now I play Tournament time 40 moves/1 hour + 20 moves/30 minutes. I can see a difference in my play. I am going to post another couple of games for the fun of it. I am hoping for human input on my games because computers can catch obvious blunders but they can not offer advice on strategy. I appreciate your reply, thanks, Matt
