DATCC League - Games From Round 2

The game between Lim Zhou Ren and GM Ziaur Rahman. Hairulov created an April Fool prank reporting that the GM had lost his game. As the game shows below, GM Ziaur won rather comfortably. When asked, his comment about Zhou Ren was that "he played like he was playing blitz!"

White: Lim Zhou Ren

Black : GM Ziaur Rahman
