This was a game I played recently with a 7 4 time control. My opponent chose the dragon variation of the sicilian defense, and I responded with the Yugoslav attack. Any comments are welcome, and I hope you enjoy the game and attack.

Wonderful mate.  Why would you have been planning on going for a drawn endgame at move 14?  You were clearly winning at that point.

Also, you use the word "accurate" twice in a context that doesn't make sense to me.  Is that some sort of chess terminology I haven't come across yet (which is entirely possible)?

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been a drawn endgame- I am up a pawn and an exchange at that point. The game continuation gave him some counterplay, which trading down may not have. Still, it seems to have worked out fairly well for me. As far as "accurate", I mean it to be the best continuation, or sometimes an acceptable continuation (e.g. some openings if you play a move order that isn't accurate, you can get unfavorable complications)
