This game was played in the first round of the 28th Chess.com Tournament where the rating range is 1601-1800. The tournament is still ongoing and I have managed to secure my place on the next round before my final game ends. Of course when I entered this tournament my rating was on that range but after it had started it went over 1800 at some point. I am very close of getting that place to the second round with a perfect score of 10/10. I have no doubt in my mind that on the next round I will not be able to continue that well but I will try my best of course. I have added more puzzles to mate in twos and threes.
