Can you help me with analysing this game:

I don't like 7...Qxd6 at all : you've given a pawn for some development advantage - you shouldn't trade your strongest attacker !

 

You played very well afterhis f5? and the attack starting with Bb4+ is really nice Smile

 

In the opening, I wonder if f6, instead of d6 is playable ?

I wonder if 13.Bd3 allows you to castle, then the game would be different

I'm not a big fan of 4.f4 because I like to keep my center closed longer. A big center does require a big army to hold it. The Queen swap was not good for either side in general. It is the most mobile piece and when there's a lot of air around the king she's best kept on the board. (In your case it was ok to do so).

A lot of moves for both sides were not examined. Take a look at earlier castling options for White and also 11.Bf4. This should give you and idea of the scope of play.

not the best of games , both sides didn't really attack well, they just traded bad moves.

I don't like 4. f4 because it exposes White's king very early on. You did a good job of capitalizing on this.

I agree that 7... Qxd6 is inferior to 7... Bxd6.
