Penetration and blockade

Penetration and blockade

Today's first game was again against a computer assisted user, after the game, the chess.com staff marked the opponent as computer user.

I made a mistake, I allowed him to get the a-file and under the pressure instead of the passive defense I tried to counter-attack and weakened my king. I blundered a nice counter-attack and it allowed him to penetrate and win:

Then I decided to play an other game, but be carefull and start the game only after I checked my opponent history. Many people left a note for him about a possible computer-assistance.
I decided to accept the challenge anyway, at least we can detect another computer user, if he would do it in my game.
I played the nimzo-indian defense. He played the rare 4.Bg5 line. I exchanged on c3 and built up a blockade. I got a nice knight on f4 and planned to break on the queenside. I missed a few times, he could sacrifice a pawn for penetration. When I was able to play the b6-b5 break, it way a losing move, because of the queen's position. We were both in time trouble, so I accepted when he offered me a draw:
