? I've played exactly games with the English, both on here. I have henceforth retired it from my rep.

Alright!, I play the King's Indian myself. Maybe this will be like that level on Mortal Kombat where you have to fight yourself to the death...bring it on!

Oh here we go, I'm thinking about using the Bayonet attack. I hate it when white uses it on me, so I'm going to return the favor!

Hey wait a minute! What is this? I've been duped. I no nothing about this opening at all. I guess I'll just have to flail around blindly...

This is actually the second most popular continuation in the database I'm looking at at the moment. Nf3 is more popular.

Nbd7 was probably better for black.

White should have great chances from here, Nbd7 seems to win more for black amongst players who know what they're doing.

? I shouldn't be hell bent on opening up the position, I should have played Rc1.
On the bright side, at least the position has opened up, although in this case it wasn't worth the pawn and the bishop pair. I'm on the ropes from here on out, trying to reclaim my material.
