A36 Symmetrical English vs ...g6: 4.Bg2 Bg7 (1.c4 c5 2.Nc3 g6 3.g3 Bg7 4.Bg2 Nc6 5.e3 d6 6.Nge2 Bg4)

This was played in the first round of an over the board tournament that was held at Turku between December 7th 2001 and December 9th 2001. My rating back then was really low and I did not know all that much about chess. I am not sure how many times I faced this opponent, but he has always been a difficult adversary for me over the board. We both have improved our play over the years and if we were to play 100 game match or something like that I would not be so sure of the result. I think I would have good chances against him, based on mostly of the fact that I think I have spend a lot more time studying the game lately than he is, but he may still have the upper hand. Back in 2001, I did continue the games much longer than I would continue these days. I mean I would have resigned this game much sooner if this were a more recent game.
