Sweet! Lots of 'that would be a good move, now find something better!' Enjoyed the Q-sac very much.

Nice!!!

Nice finish.

Am learning KID, so hope don't mind comments about that. 9Bg5 looks strange because don't see why black can't play 9...Nd7(e8) followed by f5 like usual. Think must be missing something here.  Quite a few games of top players have gone 9...Nh5 10.Ne1 Nf4 11Nd3 Nxe2ch. Not sure why black is spending so much time, exchanging white's bad bishop. Definitely not understanding something here.

After 9...h6 looks more logical to play 10BxN giving up bishop pair to slow down black's f5 break.  Maybe 10...Ne8 better since can't stop c5, so better to defend d6,c7. Then a later nh4 not possible because of Nxd5. 11Nh4 is an interesting move, not sure what happens after 11...f5.

 If my memory serves, this is correct. This is a known theoretical position and it's believed that white has a positional advantage after 10. Bxf6. Black has to take time to reorganize his kingside push giving white time to generate play on the queenside.

What a finish!!!

Great  taking advantage of inaccurate play by black.   Nd7 was bad - Ne8 was far better, allowing f5 to be immediately played.

 

I must admit that I loved your ending - it's just beautiful.

Yes...did he really think you just dropped your queen?  Very pretty finish. 

Great queen sac, I bet he didn't even hesitate.

Great Game!!

thanks for the comments everyone.

That was awesome. I thought you were just going to keep going back and forth, taking all his pieces. Very nice game.

thank you

georgeous queen sac and windmill. amazing game.

Well played! In the opening 10.Ae3 may be responded by 10...Ng4¡? I think, and f7-f5.

The final is like - or identical! - the game Alekhine-Fletcher, London (sim), 1928:

26.Qxe4! fxe4 27.Bxe4+ Kh8 28.Ng6+ Kh7 29.Nxf8+ Kh8 30.Ng6+ Kh7 31.Ne5+ Kh8 and 32.Nf7++

The power of the discovered check!

thank you

Brilliant moves! If you can maintain this style of play I think your rate will be reach 2000 elo for next tournament.

thank you :D ...my elo is already 2317

11... Nc5??  I think your opponent should give up the kings indian defense if he plays such absurdly bad moves.  I mean I'm still shaking my head in disbelief.

a few questions. Did you see the mate opportunity straight away, how long did it take you to calculate and when you made the move, did you know it would be a forced mate, or were you still unsure?
