Fascinating. Like the sacs, though you're right that some of them look speculative at best. Objectively, white was probably winning at various points.

Yeah, I think White could probably win at some point, though I think it's difficult to see exactly how. These positions, I think, are such that while Black is down heavy material, his pieces are very active.
Wow tons opportunities for white, just right move wrong time

hello chessattackman, good to see you. In the beginning, even if you dont believe it, you shouldnt have given your pawn. b6 was needed and your position would be fine, i would even say black is slightly better. Because in the game you just game him a free pawn and let him get away with it.
Your sacrifise looks interesting but is unfortunately not sound. White had several ways to not get mated ^^, he just shouldnt play Rh3. On move 17 you had the very strong move 17... d3 ! this should give black the better position in all lines. After Bxd3 for example you take on f3 with the knight and play Ne5.
best regards

Err, I'm a little confused, since I know chessattackman! I'm not him :)
Regarding the pawn, are you sure? I see little difference between this position and the one here: http://www.chess.com/article/view/chess-lessons-exposed-never-say-ldquoi-have-tordquo I would argue the pawn is hardly free, since I eventually have five pieces developed to his two (he undevelops his queen). Nevertheless, my material stingy side is agreeing. :)
I realize Rh3 is a terrible move, but I'm not 100% sure of how White gets by in the line I posted. I'm sure the sacrifices shouldn't work.
Thanks for the post.
Hello!
Normally, I don't play a game in which I sacrifice heavy material, but this one I have to analyze! My piece sacrifices are probably not all that sound, but they presented my opponent with practical problems that led to his/her downfall. I intentionally played a little more ambitiously and dynamically than usual, and the positions in this game are interesting, so please help me analyze!
Thanks,
chessman
