Game 1831316
I really enjoyed this game, especially because it was quite a nice checkmate. But I thought I had something in the opening (from move 7) but no matter how much I looked at it I couldn't see a mate or move that won a piece. Did I miss something or was my search futile? Any comments/criticism on a fun game for me would be welcome.

If someone is under pressure you need to milk the position, increase the pressure, make them sweat, keep them on the ropes etc, dont blow your load too soon. They stand a much improved chance of making a blunder when under a great deal of pressure.

move 8.....
i'd say Bxd5 is much better.....
the reason(s) being: -
1) It wins material
2) removes the threat on the bishop
3) adds another attacker....
4) Nf7 can be played later
5) with the black d5 pawn gone whites d4 pawn may be able to get into the action at some point
after Bxd5 you still have the threat of Nf7, only this time you can get the queen out of the way (without losing the knight) and win a rook
on saying that, Qf7+ isn't bad....

You had good attack but then you traded queens and got equal, maybe even slighty worse position. Luckily, your opponent blundered.
after 25 Ne4 the black rook can't defend the bishop anymore..
instead of losing a bishop, the opponent make a bigger mistake by giving away a rook.. how sad..
