I played the Grand Prix Attack against Grandmaster Sergei Zhigalko. He got a small advantage from the opening. I defended well and got even a small edge, but missed a tactics in the time trouble and he won in style.

How can black finish the game?

How about this?

How can white keep the advantage?

How to checkmate white?

How can black continue the attack?

How can white win?

I missed this nice move in the game:

How can I get a winning advantage?

How can white keep the balance?

How can white keep the initiative?

Grandmaster Sergei Zhigalko:
This is the full game:

I wish you enjoyed the exercises. Please use the patterns in your games!

I use and recommend these courses. Please check them. They may help you to go to the next level in your chess.

If you would like to improve your calculation I suggest you 2 great courses:

Tactics Ninja: Something unbelievable and funny. The editor Lily, being 1,200 on chess.com, raised her online rating by 100 points in 2 weeks, just by looking through the videos of this course when she was editing them.

Mating Matador: Mastering mating patterns is the next step to get better at tactics and become a dangerous attacker. It often bridges the gap between a strong attack against the opponent's King and victory. So once you become better at sniffing checkmates, your attacking skills naturally improve.
