I played terrible chess last night.

It was the first match of the CICL season. I had a rough game, but I was ahead for most of it and I was in a position that was winning, although a bit technical (Rybka confirms). I hadn't played flawlessly, but I had done okay up to this point. I gave my opponent a gift. Instead of playing a winning move, I played a losing move that I had seen, on the previous move, as immediately losing. I immediately lost.

Well, it's a start. Good game, well played, etc. I'm definitely going to learn some lessons from this.

EDIT: I suppose I should always remember that I'm only one step away from defeat.
