You should have castled on move 10.

Try not to leave you Queen open to a discovered attack.

6...Bc5 looks like a better try for Black.

White would have been fine after 12.Qd3.

Yes, it seems univision was your problem that lost you you're queen.

The Kings Pawn attack/mate may work occasionally, and be cheeky, but if your opponent knows how to defend it--which should be one of the first thing any player learns-- then attacks to the kings pawn can be a huge weakness. Just a general comment, I don't know if you often attack that spot.

Also, by move 6 you're pawns are hopelessly separated and other than files f-h, you're pawns cannot assist each other so 1/2 of your pawns are essentially dead in the water.

I think the game could have continued with Na3 or Nd2, this would force the bishop to move, or a knight-bishop trade (and a further loss of your knight. But then you could castle and mount a kingside offensive hoping his rooks stay stuck on the backrank or on the other side of the board.

just played thro your game you played very well untill move 12Nxf7??....Correct is 12Qf5 with the threat of mate on h7....so 12...g6 13Bxf7+ Kg7 14Bd4+ Bf6 15Bxf6+ Qxf6 16Qxf6 Kxf6 17Bd4! wins...or if 12...Bxg5 13hxg5 g6 14Qxg6+!! hxg6 15Bd4! with mate.

Why so eager to resign, lumax? Yes, your attack failed, and yes, that didn't leave you in the best of positions, but it seems to me that you still had plenty of chances. More important, it seems to me that there's still a lot of valuable information to learn from finishing a game like that.

14. Bg5 attacks his undefended Bishop, for instance. Nd2 threatens his other Bishop -- the one that's keeping you from castling. It also clears the way for the long castle, which, although not highly desirable due to the lack of pawn cover on that side, still has the benefit of loading your Rook onto the half-open d-file.

I think you still had plenty of play left in that game and that you would have benefited more from finishing it than from resigning.

Yikes. Missed this. Of course it wins easily.
