This week's pair of games are by Kurt Utzinger who lives in Wetzikon, a small city near Zurich and writes:
I am a pensioner aged 69 and have two daughters aged 39 and 41. Until March 2015 I worked in the city administration of Wetzikon as deputy of the chief executive.
I'm interested in both chess and chess chess computers, am an active member of various chess forums and since 2006 have been president of the chess club Pfäffikon ZH.
I'm also interested in dogs, am a board member of the dog club SKG ZO and spend several mornings a week walking and training my dogs.
I love to read books and of course to spend time with my children and grandchildren.
Kurt sent me two excellent fighting games which he annotated in detail and to which I've added my notes as JS. We start with the very disappointing loss.
