A01 Nimzowitsch-Larsen Opening (1.b3 d5 2.Bb2 c5 3.e3 Nc6 4.Bb5)

The game I am sharing today was played in the first round of the 2014 October Glacial Super Casual Banded I 1650+ tournament. I am playing on group 1 and I currently reside on 9th place with 18 points. A player called takinitez007 (1890) leads the tournament having gathered 47 points so far. Caissad4 (1942) is on second place with 38 points, jankrb (2165) is on third place with 34 points. Takinitez007 not only is the current leader but also has the highest maximum possible score which means the current leader has very good chances to win the group and advance to the next round. I am, however, among the five people still who can win the group and advance to the second round. The way I have been playing recently, I do not think that I will be able to advance to the second round, I just seem to lose almost every single game.
