I won playing the queen pawn first, Ive been trying it lately, mostly loosing al my games... I would still like to know if there are any bad moves that I made that my opponent could have taking advantage of, but missed.... Ty for all the help.

He could've taken the free pawn with 11... Nxe4.  The way he played it gave you a bit more options--although he still had a very good game.  On moves 18-19 it looks like he could've played ... Ne5 followed by ... Nd3+, blocking out most (if not all) of your attack.  Honestly though I thought 19... c3 was going to work too.  I like how you developed your attack after 20 Rxd5.  I'd thought 22 Nd4+ Ne5 23 Nc6 was going to work, but I couldn't find anything after 23... Qxc6 24 Rxe5+ Kd8.

Well, your 10th move.  I think you should probably play either 10 e5 or 10 cd followed by 11 e5.
