alot games I look thru in the Queens Gambit Aceepeted white usually gets it back a couple moves later or immediately right after while in the catalan I've noticed very often that white doesn't or alot of time it seems even try to get the pawn !

Is the Catalan a TRUE Queens Gambit !

Yes.

White gets tremendous compensation for the pawn.  White also runs a great risk of winding up down a pawn.

thanks for the lines and estragon that was one heck of aggressive game thru pure tactical threats is how you kept alive and sound positional judgement did you know where to put your forces great games.
