Almost but not quite
I thought February 12, 2012 will be the day I will be beaten by xanthe in our chess battle. I employed a rare variation against Pirc Defence (Bf4) which of course she is already familiar with. I took me morethan 30 minutes to decide if I will accept her pawn sacrifice which I did after so much thought on the next moves I will employ. She is improving each day and very resourceful. She told me later on that she showed our game to his coach and requested on what variations will she use against me. I was really surprised but still prevailed in tactical ending.
