So the sample game I'm giving here is a blitz game, and one played by me, so it's not perfectly played by any means.  On the other hand, this method of handling the Catalan has been popular lately, and so I'd like to introduce you to it :).

 

Once again, this is worth looking into further if you're interested in fighting against the 'typical catalan pressure' with a more aggressive approach.
