The game below was played at Red Hot Pawn in the second round of a tournament called 2014 August Banded Quartets I 1700-1800. As you may notice in the notation, both players are out of the rating range of this tournament, this is partly due to the fact that the ratings that are shown below are not the ones that these players had when this game was played. The ratings are from the time I took the pgn for this game from Red Hot Pawn. It might be better if the rating there would be the one after the game but I guess that is one of the things that nobody wanted to change in the site update that they did awhile back. I think I do like their update on the most part and I do not have any real complaints about it. The one thing that annoyed me in the older version, they fixed, so I am happy about it. This was a tournament in which I finished fourth due to badly played second round that actually determined my final position in the standings. Red Hot Pawn is still the only site where I keep breaking my peak ratings every now and then and the new peak rating I have there now is 1917, which I got May 8th 2015. It might very well start a slight downward spiral in the nearish future but I may be able to keep my rating over 1900 and that is my goal there, I do not want to drop below it anymore. I have added one mate in one, three mate in threes and one mate in four today.
