First of all John never would open 1.c3 against me, as
there is no advantage in closing the position against me.

Secondly he would never play with black 1.e4,c6 2.d4,d5 3.Nc3,a6?

If he would then i would not only be under my chair from laughter,
and he would face defeat, as from the  2 advantages of v/d Wiel
national 2483 rated against me 2271 national rated one would
fall away. The first advantage being having a professional opening,
the second advantage being better technique because he has played
more games.

Further i doubt John would have missed in game 2 at move 46 the move Qc7
against me, as he expects that we both make mistakes so he is
ready to shoot me down with a cool trick.
What he only now probably is realizing is that sometimes
a computer allows a trick because there is no way out, though it for
sure had seen it.
