Women's World Chess Championship 2010; Antakya, Turkey (02-12-2010/24-12-2010)

Round 1, Day 2, the last 64

The playinghall

My tournament already ended in the first round and I did it to myself. After yesterdays loss, I had to win today and after the opening I had a very good position once again. My move 26 was a very stupid blunder, missing her reply 26...Nf4, but even after that I missed many opportunities.

Chess is sometimes very cruel and nothing else for me to do now then to pack my suitcase and go back home. Hopefully in the next year I will not blunder so much on the chessboard.
