Game 1 you played well. I don't understand 23 Be7+ though. Can't he just take your piece for free with Kxe7. You have your bishop covering f3 preventing a rook lift.
Game 2. You had a weak square on c5 that caused you some problems. ...Be6 was not the best and allowed Nc5.
17...Bxc2 is not best since you win a pawn and lose your knight.
Comments are nice :D
