Here is a game I just played in live chess. I really enjoyed it because I actually held my own against a sicilian opening by playing KIA. It took us 23 moves to make a capture. The time control was at 15 with a 10 second increment. Towards the end of the game it gets a bit sloppy, but I blame that on the time running low and things getting heated. It was a pretty good positional game IMO, something I don't really get into normally.

30. Re2 seems to overlook some possibilities. How about 30. Nxb7 with a discovered skwerer on the a3-f8 diagonal. After the queen moves you can play 31. Nxa5 and then 32. Bxf8, overall you'd win a rook and pawn for a knight.
