The following is perhaps my favorite game in a tournoment that I am curruently involved with. My opponent made a few mistakes early one that allowed me to use some interesting tactics.

I think you won that game on a lot of unforced errors but it was very entertaining

I agree my opponent opened with a strange opening and I just took advantage of the errors he made and threw in a bit of agressiveness to force the game in my direction

Nice game sir. Good set of forcing checks at the end.

May I suggest 3. . . b5?! 4. a4! to rip his queenside to shreds.

This often leads to this trap which I've used twice, since Black's moves 'seem' natural (protecting the pawn):
