Today I won against WGM Ziaziulkina (2342 ELO) and the team won 2.5-1.5 against Belarus! The game started slowly with me playing a new line (for me) for the first time 🙂 but in the end I managed to do a couple of sacrifices 🙂

Two days ago I drew GM Socko and my team lost 1.5-2.5 to Poland. The game was really interesting. Here it is:
