Game 2570178 - thematic tournament, my oppenent had a nice tactic to shatter my pawn structure but misplayed (Rd7) which I capitalized on tactically with c6
Game 2504030 - this one is pretty because not only did I sac an exchange, but I saw it coming and planned it.
Game 2403350 - I didn't deserve to win this one, but my opponent played sub-optimal moves ...
Game 2354943 - another opponent who didn't play great but the mate is pretty.
Game 2312174 - tons of tactics and major imbalances here. lots of fun.

hmm I like most games that I won, but I've completed over 1000 games now so I'm not going to go any further back.

Thanks Bedlam, I couldn't remember the name and was too lazy to look it up.

Good job, at moves 24 and 25 I had to glance at your rating because those were moves only an experienced player would make.

Your play shows how fragile his defence was. Good job at exploiting an inferior opponent.

no offence, but you were down only a pawn.
