My first self-analyzed game

This is the first game I have anlayzed myself, and am really unsure of what I should be doing other than looking at the dumb mistakes I made.  This was a bad game even for me, and I thought it was the perfect candidate for analysis.  Go ahead and criticize, especially my comments.  I'm not sure how to analyze myself.

thanks for the reply paul.  nice point about move 11, that would have sucked!  So is what I did what I should be doing when I analyze my own games?  I've heard many good people say that's the best way to improve, but I just don't feel like it helps - then again, this was my first try!  I guess after I get a few of these I may notice some patterns, common mistakes, etc.?

Yeah, I definately try to avoid making the same mistakes I made in an analyzed game. Patterns are also key. (it's why people do Tactics Trainers)

 

Though I must say you're lucky that your opponent sucked in the end-game. Tongue out
