I was fairly dissappointed in my performance for this tournament
Game 1.
On this game I flubbed the Knight to d4 move, I was in a decent position and there was no need to force that part of the board, my smarter move was to push the h-pawn to h5. My biggest blunder was Knight capturing on F5. Rook to E2 would have been better.

Game 2.
In this game my first mistake was pushing my queen 9ut to H4. Best move would have been to pull thye Knight back. After that there were plenty of blunders on both sides.
