Learn?  3.Bc4 is supposedly an inaccuracy.

d4 is more often played.

With 2764 games in the database and

win : 48.7%

draw:  20%

loss: 31.3%

I don't think it is an innacuracy

Yes d4 has slightly better draw chances, but I like to go for wins

wow look at that... there is Garry frickin Kasparov using the opening you just claimed to be "innacurate"

I'm not claiming my game to have no innacuracies, I'm sure all my games have some, but this is not one of those times.

I think 21.Ke2 is better than castles [it allows Rg1 and the K is safe(r) there]

41... Rxf2

42.b8=Q Rf1+

43.Kh2 Bg5

and things don't look that good for White (still winning though)

on move 21 although his king was on the g file, I think the a file was the most productive file for the rook, and I put my king into the castled position to try to hold that side together while my rook and bishop work on getting a passed pawn

and ya towards the end he was not playing that accurately but I was still winning
