game analysis

I know posting wins is discouraged, but I know I made a couple mistakes in this game, and I want some input on them, so if anyone would be willing to help, that'd be great.

I tried to include some possible variations, although I'm not sure how sound my continuations are. I tried to pick the best moves in all of them, but there is a reason I'm not a master, after all, so if they're inaccurate, please tell me.

interesting game

Any thoughts/suggestions/ideas?

Great game! I can't really comment too much on it, but I actually thought Nxb4 was a pretty good move, I've made that one point swap for a strategical advantage as well in a few of my games, and it looks like it really worked to your advantage.

Thanks. I'm normally cautious about trading minor pieces for anything less than three pawns (and even then, I only do it if I think I'll be able to take serious advantage in the endgame), but if I can get two pawns and generate an attack on the enemy king, I'll sometimes go for it. It helps that I was in an aggressive mood for this game and just really wanted to attack. I'm glad someone liked the demonstration.

12...Be7, I think better is 12...b6.

I don't know if any other comments can be made.  Perhaps this advice, if you're down material by way of sacrifice, it is best not to trade queens.
