This is ECO A34, The English Opening symmetrical variation. If you've read my profile you may know that this is one that I dislike. The symmetrical moves are my attempt to play a "Sicilian" like defense. It worked pretty well...

 

I liked this game Smile. I can honestly say it is one of my best ever.

I hope you enjoy it.

Nice tactics- good job, too. Kasparov calls the positions that look like the Sicilian "Hedgehog Systems", and he uses them against the English. I hope that helps you as much as your game helped my tactical understanding of the game!
