Tactics are what most chess games come down to, and developing good tactical awareness is what makes a strong player. I am still working on that:D This was a very instructive game in which I'd decided to grab a pawn that served a great purpose. It was blocking my opponent's bishop and making my king safe. I had to resign a move later! Learn frm this.
