Here is a rare game from our regular Blitz Champion, Andrew Newton, I managed to get it from his opponent, George Pyrich, thank you George!. It is a game that is typical of Andrews style, not for him the easy route. The middle game was very stable but then it all kicked off, George missed a winning move and Andrew recovered to win.

Pyrich, George vs. Newton, Andrew
