this game certainly doesnt compare to THE immortal game or the evergreen game and i probably made tons of mistakes that you guys are gonna point out,but it certainly was fun to play. he defended very well ignoring all my sacs but made some critical mistakes , so in the end, i won

a lot of mistakes in there, but, yeah nice finish... instead of 25. Qb4 white should have taken on g7 with check (even though white was totally stuffed)... I love the icelandic gambit, that's my opening as well :)
the king was in check from my rook and Qb4 is the only move that prolongs the game

Overall, pretty nice game. Seeing that Ne2 allowed Qxa4 was a nice spot. I think on move 14 most people would opt to win by Qb6, but your way actually works out too after Bxc3 bxc3 Nxc2! since 17. Kxc2? would lose to Rxb7 18. Re1 (18. Qb3?? Ba4) Qb2+ 19. Kd1 Qa1+ 20. Ke2 Rb2+ 21. Kf3 Rf8+ 22. Kg3 Qxe1.
so the game would follow 16...Nxc2! 17. Kd2 Qb2 18. Qb3 Rxb7 19. Qxb2 Rxb2 and probably 20. Kc1 Ra2 21. Kb1 Ra1+ 22. Kxc2 Ba4+ if he tried to win the piece back

His 0-0-0 was really poor IMO. He castled into an attack with his pawns all ready to be ripped open.
I think 11...Nd4? was a blunder. 12.Qxf7+ was his very natural reply, but if he'd played 12.Bxf7+ instead I think you lose a piece without compensation -- 12...Kd8 Qxg7, forking B and Rook.... although i looked at this for a little while and some of the lines are pretty sharp, but i don't think you can get your piece back. I dunno... maybe 12...Kf8 is better for you... but you lose two pawns and get your K exposed.
well, im a 1400 player and you guys are 2000+, but thanks for the insight!
