I want some expert help here on move 6...

chessagreatgame

Can anyone spot any kind of tactical breakthrough at move 6. I moved Bxd4, and the other guy made a mistake resulting in a loss of queen for him. I want to know if there was any forced capture (or checkmate)?

Or any serious blunders i could have made in the game?

You would get a better game in theory with 5... bxf2+ .

He should have had the advantage by simply playing 7Bg2

You did not have a tactical break through. You opponet lost the game when he did not play 8. Bg2 and you made a good move after he played 8. Bg5?

Earlier you should have considered 5. ...Bxf2+

For you to have a break through so early your opponent would have had to play badly.  He played reasonably well until his 8th move.

5. .... Bxf2+!

That isn't necessarily good for Black though.

Please explain.

It looks akin to 1 c4 e5 2 Nc3 Nf6 3 Nf3 Nc6 4 e4 Bc5 5 Nxe5 Bxf2+...which is rather dubious.
