I usually play e5 in response to e4.

I have not played this a lot, but I do think it fits my style - whatever that is.

Perhaps this was not the best move. My intent was to get the Knight to e6, which I did, but I am not convinced this was best.

In retrospect I do not like this move. Maybe Nxd4 followed by Ng4 and getting my other Knight to e6 was better. Removing the rook from the A file was probably not good. c5 at this time would have allowed Nxf5 Rxf5, 17. Bxe5. I don't recall seeing this during the game.

I thought f3 might be an option for you.

While this looks good, maybe Bc5 or c6 protecting the d5 pawn was better.

I don't recall even considering Nf6 or Nd6, which were possible because your e5 pawn was pinned.

No I regret having moved my rook from the A file. Good move.

I was proud of this move at the time, but I think b4 or c4 would have been better. I over estimated the value of having my Queen in line w/ your King.

This compounds the mistake. axb must be better. I must have been thinking my chances would be better without the Queens. I don't know why.
