B50 Sicilian: 2...d6, Miscellaneous (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.b3 Nc6 5.Bb2)

I am going through my Chess.com Online Chess games at the moment but I will probably go through other sites where I play corr chess as well. Hoping that they are somewhat better quality games than those blitz games I have posted also here. Maybe I go through some of the games only by making some training positions out of them. For now, it is time again to end posting as this day is concerned and I am back tomorrow with some hopefully interesting games.
