The following 2 chess games were played around the time my children were born. They hold a special place in my heart. My first son was born in 2015. What a year that was. Singapore (the country I’m from) had just celebrated its 50th Year of Independence. Here is the game played in the hospital right the day before my son was born.

My wife gave birth to my second son in the year of 2017. Around this time I had played a fantastic game with the White pieces using the Tromposky as White. I decided that this was a fitting game to dedicate to him.
