So... I read the article backwards. When you mentioned the move 27 puzzle, simply knowing it is a puzzle allowed me to instantly find 27. Rd3!

I suppose the moral of the story is: high-rated opponents are extremely sharp with tactics, so it's important to balance playing for the initiative versus spending time to avoid falling into the opponent's trap!

It's interesting to share your tournament experience
I have played a tournament where I lost 3 games in a row and got 3/6
I was disappointed from my self
But then on i started improving my self day aftr day and then I played another event and got 5.5/6 then in my next tournament again 5.5/6
And in my last OTB tournament i got 5/7
