Probably my best-played OTB game to date (18. ... Re5 aside). Time control was G/90. I used to play the King's Indian Attack but gave it up in favour of the Queen's Gambit (and Catalan, when my opponent cooperates). I suddenely realised that I had never actually faced the KIA and had not the slightest idea how to deal with it ... so what you see was made up on the fly
