10/0 time controls. In a cramped position, I sacrifice a pawn to launch the game into complications. What at first looked plassive and dull turns very treacherous, and the game comes to a close in a very abrupt, and quite beautiful, fashion.

Interestingly, I missed a winning tactic on move 18: ...Qf6! wins at least a queen and a pawn for a rook and bishop.

Very well done; congratulations!

I'm not much for analyzing individual move choices in other people's games, but I can appreciate your ability to find the moves leading up to that devastating blow at the end, especially with the time pressures. Nice work, and thx for sharing!
