B58 Classical Sicilian 6.Be2 (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Be2 Bd7)

The game below was played in the seventh round of the 2nd Eurasian League Tournament. The match I am playing in is between East Slavs and Finno-Ugric Chess Players. I am playing on board 4 for the Finno-Ugric Chess Players. This is played on 26 boards and the only game left in this match is apparently my other game against vikkol. This match was quite evenly matched as the current score is 26,5 - 24,5 in favor of East Slavs. I just calculated the total amount of correspondence games I have played so far and the current amount is 794. 22 games of those are chess960 games. Out of the total amount I have won 560, played 49 draws and lost 185 times. I can't really complain about those stats as I have roughly won 7 games out of 10. There is always room to improve and I have messed up a bit too many games on beginner like blunders which should not happen with these time controls. Because I have had quite a lot of games in progress at the same time, mistakes can be partly explained by it. I have added one mate in one, two mate in twos, one mate in five and one mate in six.
