Through To Two

With another endgame win with Black, I have managed to gain the top score in Group #1 (5-1-0) in one of my Chess.com Italian Game thematic tournaments, moving on to the second round along with JoseSoza (4-1-1). I am pleased with my two wins and one loss with the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+).


In my second Italian Game thematic tournament, I am still at a gloomy 1-4-0, although I am up three connected passed pawns in an ending with the Black pieces that sometime or other has to become a win. So far I have reached only one Jerome Gambit, ongoing, but, with three pawns for a piece there is still a lot of play left!
