Here's a simple analysis by me of my first game here on chess.com.

Nothing quite like watching yourself go down in flames... not once, but twice.

...

That said, the game was wonderfully played by "alison27".  And, although hard to believe, I actually enjoyed being squashed!

lol @ gdadson...to be fair shuttlechess I'm still new to this site I'm probably rated somewhere around 1500, and just got lucky ;).

Excellent game! Almost makes me want to switch to the Danish.  :)

haha I love the Danish.  I lost to it in a tournament once (horribly) and I decided to check it out.  Great line. 

Usually, trading a Knight and a Bishop for a rook would be frowned upon (6 points for 5) but in your case alison, that was his only mobile rook (less passive than the other one anyway).  Great game! :)
