Slomski's Rapid Chess Training League - Season 1 - Weeks 7-10

Hi folks, I'm back again with the Slomski Rapid Chess Training League, a rapid league for players in that intermediate-advanced range, looking to play against other strong opponents in weekly matches. Make sure to check out Part 1 and Part 2, where I look at games from previous weeks in the league. This blog will be about Weeks 7-10, where games were played from October - December. I've chosen the most interesting games/excerpts to cover, with some creative ideas and also some (less good) moves:

This month (January) the playoffs for this league will take place, featuring the 8 best performing players throughout the 10 weeks. Look forward to another blog later on about this exciting league!
