Did I play good here ?
Thx ! 😀
The opening is like an Alekhine's Defense gone horribly wrong. The move 1...a6? is just a waste of time. The usual Alekhine's is 1.e4 Nf6 2.e5 Nd5 3.c4 Nb6 4.d4 d6 and now if 5.f4, like in your game, 5...dxe5 6.fxe5 Nc6 keeps the pressure on White's center.
In your game, Black kindly stepped aside and allowed you full central control. Basically, you crushed someone who was not even familiar with basic chess principles [like 'control the center']. That's really nothing to brag about.

I don't like arrogant posters.
P.S. It would be useful if you learnt how to analyze games. Crucial skill.

Just don't know why the sarcasam and undfriendly maners.
Sorry for posting that rubbish of game. I won't do that anymore.
As for game with ponderable I just wanted to show that his chess skills do not correspond his arrogance. I didn't commit a crime. I posted a chess game in "chess only" forum and I got attacked by ponderable and others in really unnecessary way.
Leaving the site.
Bye
