Robert Dennington vs Chris Hare

Internal Division 1 - French Defence

In this game Chris made a speculative sacrifice to open up whites king. Playing down a piece Chris succeeded in making the game complicated with a same side castled kings pawn storm.

Robert having won a second bishop with a tactic found the only way to maintain his advantage was to sacrifice his queen for the rook. Ending in a complex and uneven endgame both sides were happy to call it a draw.
