Woke up at 4:45am again, walked to Tao Dan Park and worked on the bars then played round four of the HD International Chess Tournament, the chess muse was not with me today, I was paired with an 8 year old girl who played inspired chess and I could not think clearly about tactics and strategy and the game slipped slowly away, ending in a rout when I miscalculated an exchange sacrifice. When one falls to the ground, just get up and keep going, so round five is tomorrow and I will see what happens when I sit down to play.
