I only had time to play one 8+8 game today, but I studied some English 1.c4 e5 games, in particular, the 2...Bb4 and 2...Nc6 lines.
Win: likesforests(1467)-ChinaMike(1488)
1. c4 e5 2. Nc3 c6 3. g3 d5 4. cxd5 cxd5 5. Bg2 d4 6. Nd5 Be6 7. Qa4+ Qd7 8. Nc7+ Ke7 9. Qxd7+ Kxd7 10. Nxa8 Nc6 11. Bxc6+ Kxc6 12. Nf3 f6 13. e4 Bd6 14. O-O Nh6 15. d3 g5 16. Bd2 Rxa8 17. Rac1+ Kd7 18. a3 Bg4 19. Kg2 Nf7 20. h3 Bxf3+ 21. Kxf3 h5 22. b4 Rg8 23. g4 hxg4+ 24. hxg4 Rh8 25. Rh1 b6 26. Rxh8 Nxh8 27. Rh1 Ng6 28. Rh7+ Be7 29. Kg3 Kc6 30. Rg7 Nf4 31. Rxe7 Nxd3 32. Rxa7 Nb2 33. Rf7 Nc4 34. Bc1 Kb5 35. Rxf6 Ka4 36. Rf5 Kb3 37. Rxg5 Kc2 38. Bf4 exf4+ 39. Kxf4 Nxa3 40. e5 d3 41. e6 Nc4 42. e7 Nd6 43. Rd5 Ne8 44. Ke5 d2 45. Ke6 d1=Q 46. Rxd1 Kxd1 47. g5 Kc2 48. g6 Kc3 49. Kf7 Kxb4 50. g7 b5 51. g8=Q Nd6+ 52. Ke6 Nc4 53. e8=Q Ka4 54. Qa8+ Na5 55. Qg4+ b4 56. Qf5 Kb3 57. Qaxa5 Kc3 58. Qxb4+ Kxb4 59. Qc2 Kb5 60. Kd5 Kb6 61. Qc6+ Ka5 62. Qb7 Ka4 63. Kc4 Ka5 64. Qb5# 1-0
I was caught off-guard by 2...c6. I mistakenly continued with normal development, instead of responding to his plan with 3.Nf3.
7...Qd6 - My opponent blunders. I score the exchange with 8.Nc7+ Ke7 9.Qxd7 Kxd7 10.Nxa8. 10.Nxe6 would have scored a whole piece.
30...Nf4 - My opponent blunders away a bishop.
37.Rxg5 Kc2 - Black traps my bishop! I planned to move it after Kc2, but didn't calculate the escape squares (process error).
