This was a very good game both sides made some minor errors at the beggining, but by the time my attack built up my opponent slipped up.

Wow, thank you very much you did help out a lot. You did a really good job analyzing my game. The only problem I saw was your 14. Bg7!! suggestion. Here black would capture my knight, forcing my recapture hanging my bishop. Otherwise thanks for taking the time

there was no qh6

Xevs why did you take your analysis down? I mean you don't have to take the time to redo it but you did have many very helpful ideas and variations. It was only the one that I found an error with

Here is another game that I just played that shows how easily an opponent can slip up. This was a 5 minute time control game and it didn't last long. I may periodically add games hopefully to help those out curious about this opening. It's a great system for blitz and can be effectively used in longer games too. It isnt until the very high levels that this opening is considered unfit for long play.

For the next game that I submit, I will try to make it a game that invovles a strategy against ...e6 variations. Hope my games will help everyone out.

Here is a game that I played against someone on Playchess.com. My opponent was just short of 350 points higher than I was. It was a 30 min. time control. I don't know whether the opening caught him by surprise or that I just did really good, but I developed a good attack even though I ended up blowing a completely won position with perpetual check. This game give some insight into strategies used in the ...e6 variation, but more specifically also ...a6 preventing Bb5. There are different strategies used for other formations.

In the initial game you posted (original one. First post. Please post new games in new topics. It gets confusing to everyone, including you otherwise),

black's first real mistake is 11...Re8. White is attacking, it's time to get a hold on the center or force white to exchange with 11...Ne5. If white exchanges, it's hard to attack fast enough. If not, that knight is an excellent defender.

As to punishing the mistake, there's a chance that 12.fxg6 would have been better than Bh6, but I'm still looking at that. I'll reach my conclusions in a bit.

12...Bh8 is probably another small error, And I like your reply 13.Ng5. At this point I'm not sure if fxg6 would have been better. Don't think so anymore. It probably WAS better a few moves ago, but not necessarily now.

13...Bf6 isn't such a good move at first glance, but what else is black to do?

maybe 13...Bb4 avoids some of the variations I'm looking at right now, but I see no other move than these two, and both are not very glamorous for black.

Perhaps 17...c4  (instead of ...Bd7) was black's last real attempt at counterplay before the position becomes easily winning for white. (Although there are other defensive moves too that may give better defensive chances than this one.).

17...Bd7?? is a real blunder, and 18.Nd5 wins the game outright.

Nice attack. After f5, white was always with the initiative or with a direct attack. Black of course had many other easy defenses in the beginning of it.
