Super beautiful game against a 2500! TOTALLY DESTROYED HIM/HER!
This is against a 2500. Black resigned on move 20. 10+0 rapid. So it's not luck.

Hey everyone! I would like to share you a game I played.

I can share you the link if you PM me.

So here's it. Notice how my opponent got overran.

So takeaways:
1. Keep your king safe! Always. Don't just castle. Castle to a good spot. Or if there's no good spot, then don't castle (e.g. Yuri Averbakh vs Oscar Panno  1954 https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1484264)
2. Learn tactics. Notice how I could find the tactics in the game against a 2500.
3. Study master games! Because I studied GM Joseph Gallagher's game (above), I was capable of applying it to my game.

Here's the game of Joseph Gallagher vs Niklaus Giertz Switzerland 1994:
