Barayev - West @ "Contre Gambit Philidor"

Frederic Fournier analyzes my game as Black against Isaac Barayev, from last weekend's Swiss at the Marshall Chess Club.

It should be pointed out that the time control was game/30, which caused inaccurate play on both sides. For example, in the diagram below, White missed the win of a pawn by 21.Rb1.


Earlier, I might have improved by 13...Nbd7.
