Third Loss

Today, I played against Alexey Sarana, a 2430 from Russia. He caught me off guard in the opening, making me use 30 minutes on the fifth move. From there on out, I was in time trouble, and could never get back in the game. I eventually went into a pawn-down rook endgame, and he was able to win quite easily. Alexey was extremely strong, and I think that he was better than me in all aspects today. I now have 6/9 and have black on board 9 against Yuanhe Zhao, from China.
