I don't know if this go's here or in help, but any way can I get some feedback on how i could have played this game better. I played Black and I allready see that 3...,Nd7. was a bad move.

It felt like luck, I think he made his fatal mistake at move 9 Bg5. I saw the mate threat but I thought he would capture the d pawn with the Queen, no mate if he had. I guess What I'm asking for is a 2 opinion on the strength of my moves, because they all-ways seem good to me, even if there not. Objectivity for short.

Originally posted by Copopethe real boner was taking the pawn with knight. He would have had a much better game with Q-e2+ which stops the mate with a check of his own. Then he could castle and get the king out of harms way for a while.
