This game was played in the first round of the 1800+ 7 Days tournament that is held at Chess.com. 64 players started this tournament and they were divided into groups of eight. I am playing on group #5 and I currently reside in fourth place. In the eight games I have finished so far, I have gathered 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. There are also two other players in five points but their tie break is worse than mine so they are behind me in standings. Three of the best players should advance to the second round but our current leader in the group has his account closed due to cheating, so if three other players can't overtake him, I guess three of the best players who have not cheated will advance to next round. For years I had not a single game that ended in repetition of moves but recently I have ended up drawing a few games in that manner. The game below is one of those games. This game is probably the only one of those draws that I felt quite good about receiving as I did not really like my position. I have added one mate in one, three mate in twos and one mate in three puzzle today.
