{This game was played in round 4 and, despite a very rocky start to the
tournament, (including a near loss(!) to our CICL North division brethren) we
found ourselves as one of only 2 teams with a perfect 3-0-0 score.  Across
from the table was a now very familiar crew of NM Jim Dean, NM  John Lagreck ,
Daniel Gater (I don/^t recall him on this team before), and Drew Hollingberger.
This is my third outing as part of a CICL team and it seems that it just
wouldn/^t be a USAT north tournament without being paired against this team
sometime during the weekend.  Since we came into this match with 3 people in
contention for board prizes (Mathias, Steve, and I were all at 3-0-0 for the
matches) it was obvious that all 3 of us were playing round 4.  If this
tournament was a journey then this is how that voyage effectively ended.} 1. e4
Nc6 2. Nf3 {Diagram # Drew and I have played in the USAT with these same
colors.  That game was annotated in the July 2007 issue of The Chicago
Chessplayer.  I came into this tournament intending to answer e4 with e5
however, I was curious as to what Drew had prepared for me.  That said, since
most of my pretournament preparation focused on 1) /\ e5 so I decided to
accept his invitation to a transposition.} e5 3. d4 exd4 4. Bc4 Bb4+ 5. c3 dxc3

keep notation for the entire game is a FIDE standard and that was in force for
this tournament.    In any case he has 60 min left at this point.  (I have 83.)
Drew/^s slow play clearly stemmed from a surprising lack of familiarity with
the opening since, as any regular aficionado will tell you, this is not the
way to try blowing black off the board.  It simply won/^t work.} Qf6 9. O-O Qg6

relief in sight except to queen one of the pawns.  Intuitively I knew I/^d
been overly cautious pushing the queenside so I paused to construct a plan and
