Memorable Games

I recently played a fellow chess.com member and found the following game the most interesting yet.  There was a lot involved tactically, some blunders that went unseen and more importantly highly educational.

This game was from an organised tournament but my opponent was a very good chess player.  I learnt a lot about my own game having reviewed the match and am happy to share what I have learnt to other chess.com members.

He was a very good player and it was a pleasure to play with him.  I aimed to win but the opening was seen with many bad moves.  I hope to learn that no matter how one could improve their openings, much of winning comes down to learning, tactics and planning.  A win is possible even if you are down materially but have the vision to draw out minor pieces to improve the chance to win.
