Mike Serovey Defeats AntonioMendonca

Here is my first win against Antonio Mendonca Silveira in this quad. I believe that I have played him before and won, but I'm not sure of that. This game started off as a Reti and transposed into a Kings Indian defense. This win brings my ICC correspondence chess rating up to 1682 and my record to 21-14-8.
