No Mistakes or Inaccuracies!
Ironically, I ran the computer analysis on my phone, and it found my last move was an inaccuracy! better was Rg3+!
I ran the computer analysis on my laptop again, and it didn't say my Qh4 was an inaccuracy. It also only gave me 80% best move.

Yes, but you don't need a computer to see that 22. ... Rg3+ wins out of hand.
White has three possible answers:
a) 23. Kxg3 Qh3 mate.
b) 23. Nxg3 Qh3 mate.
c) 23. Kf1 Rxg1+ wins the Queen immediately.
How can that not be better than the move you played?
@ blueemu I was shaking my head at missing Rg3+, cause it's the whole idea behind Qh4. I wasn't thinking of Qh4 at first. My first thought was gettting the LSB to e4. Then i was considering lining up R, Q, and R on the h file. as i was thinking of where to pur the Q, i realized Qh4 was winning. I never even considered Rg3+! Also, i was finding the different evaluations by the chess.com chess computer weird.

Nicely played, Todd.
Looked like a few difficult decisions you had to make too, in the early midddlegame.

Very interesting game. 16. Kh1 was definitely a blunder for white. You'd be surprised that even the top level Grandmasters actually only make the stockfish first line(or best move) between 50%-60% of the time on average. You can see the list here https://chess-db.com/public/enginefirstline.jsp . The main reason for this is most likely for strategical moves. Stockfish is a master of tactics but not strategy which is why its possible to draw with it or even beat it.
This game was played in the slow chess league (45/+45). I looked at what he liked to play as white, and saw he liked to play KIA. I watched a Youtube video and tried to go into a line to get him out of KIA.

Very well played! The game transposed into a variation the French Defense, Winawer Variation where instead of Black playing the usually Bxc3, you play 6...Ba5. That's been the object of some debate in French Opening books. You played it well!
@Mick i didn't know that was theory. I just thought it would put more pressure in the center. (Ba5 and Bb6)

Nice game to play through.
You should get blueemu to dig out some of his Najdorf Sicilians.
I think white should have played 9. Bb5+
I just played this game and after running computer analysis, The computer said I had no mistakes or inaccuracies.... also I was at 85% for my moves!
