that was against me, wasn't it.

I don't really think O-O should be marked as a mistake, as after Bh6 there is nothing to fear from gxh6 in the slightest

Good thinking and good combination. One day you will surely progress to a well known player. We can predict to see the foot of a toddler.

Thanks. Nice puzz

Thanks, I didn't see that move. Bad combinations, even worse defense

Your combination is unsound. After 17. Bd7(the first move in your second diagram) Bxd7 18. Rxd7?? Nxd7 19. Rd1 Qg6!, your opponent will escape up an entire rook

Did you see the move list, and which moves could I have done better, when could my opponent played Bd7

ok I think you almost  got me with this but I must say, whoever you played against did every think you asked.

for starters I think Bxd7 was better as it was continuation on development.

now at the opening phase he/she could have prevented all this by responding with Bd7. welldone! you took your openent lightly and it worked.

Thanx for sharing.
