A game that I played today and would like to share

This is a game I played in Brisbane Chess Club against a 2000+ rated person. I was white and had a great advantage but lost it. Aftorwards, it was due to be a draw but I got too excited about drawing with someone so high rated that I blundered and lost... Please leave a comment about what you think about it.

I think you relyed on thinking there was a draw "any time now" in your position,which was not true.There was plenty of play left when u said it should've been drawn

Remember,equal positions are not neccessarily drawn positions :P

Your rook moves don't look right, such as moving up to the 3rd rank to recapture and defend, rather than staying on the back rank until an opportunity to jump to the 7th or 8th rank occurs. Notice how the Other Guy moves his rooks as I suggested. Also, your bishop pin at g5 didn't do anything useful except give up a bishop and bring out Black's queen. If I knew that opening I'd be able to give more advice.
