This was a messy and odd Sicilian 3/0 game but had none of the usual Sicilian themes or strategy?
My Best Move % is 56% which i like. My opponent was 47%.
 I remain puzzled when an opponent at this rating plays a Sicilian but then doesn't finish with 3...cxd4.   I usually just push d5 but for whatever reason i took instead, putting  me at +1.29.  His e6 was best move.

I'm surprised to learn my 7. h3 was a mistake (at least according to chess.com's garbage Rapid Analysis - which is wrong half the time rendering it worthless). Says better was Bd4...hmm?

His 12...Nb4 is a mistake but i think his best move of Bf4 is hard to find...  +1.18.

His 13...Na6 is a very serious blunder...+5.31. Analysis purports to prefer a5 which is asking a lot of tactical and positional foresight from him for a 3/0 game.  I also blunder w/ Rd3. I didn't consider Rd6 for even a second.   7. Rc3 is also a blunder...grrr.  Qe3 does look better now that you mention it. meh.png

25. Ng5 is my best move, triple attacking the prized f7 square, but it isn't even crushing until he blunders h6!  +0.34 to +4.69.  Thanks, i guess? frustrated.png

My last 3 moves i play perfectly.
