I played very safe through out the game and missed a good tactic in the next move. White can play e4 here. Try to calculate the variations, its fun ......
Other results are Garvin vs Hayes draw, Ivan lost to Williams, Coons lost to Sasa. Next round I am playing Sasa with black.

John,
Thanks for your suggestion. I was actually a total latest trend mainline 1.e4 player earlier. After coming to USA, I shifted to 1.d4 and in last 3 years became fan of uncommon variations. I am not lazy, but really didn't like to see my opponents rolling 15 moves just from memory. Tromp and other variations demand lot of energy, right from the opening. But I do not need to fight with Frtiz or Beat white with this and that.
HOWEVER, I started learning 1....e5 to 1.e4 based the suggestion by Ashish. Really enjoying it !
Thanks Again
Souvik
