E18 Queen's Indian: Old Main Line (4.g3 Bb7 5.Bg2 Be7 6.O-O O-O 7.Nc3) (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 b6 4.g3 Bb7 5.Bg2 Be7 6.O-O O-O 7.Nc3 d6 8.Qc2 Nbd7 9.e4 e5 10.Rd1)
The game I am sharing today was played at Red Hot Pawn, in a tournament called 2015 October Grand Split Three Seven I 1800+. There are 30 players participating in this tournament and the players were divided into two groups of 15. I am playing in group 1, which is the stronger group of the two because the highest rated player went to group 1, the second highest to group 2, third highest to group 1 and so on. My opponent, MarcusRemius, is the second highest rated player in group 1 and he is also the sixth highest rated player on Red Hot Pawn in the active player list. In comparison, I am currently the 460th highest rated player there. There seem to be 9638 players on that list at the moment I type this. Which would mean that I am currently in the 95.2 percentile if I calculated correctly.
The opening variation played in the game below is actually in the move order it is in theory too, which is something that rarely happens in my games. This is one of the three losses I have suffered in this tournament so far. Two of those losses were against MarcusRemius and the third one was against cenerentola (2546), who is not only the highest rated player in the group, but also on this site as well. I have also won five games in the tournament, four of them were short timeout wins, but the latest win I got was a proper game. Those five wins put me in 15 points because you get 3 points for a win. My maximum possible score is 75, which still means that I have theoretical chances to win the group. It does not mean any realistic chances though as the duo that leads group 1 are way too strong for other players in the group, or that is my opinion anyway.
