@sup_bro Nice game. I'm not sure I'd call the position at move 18 zugzwang. Zugzwang is not just having no good move, it's being in a situation where you're forced to make a move you don't want to make, when you would rather just pass your turn.
As a 1100-ish blitz player this is the most accurate game I've played.
I've recently been playing around with the Reti. I like it, but the possibilities for transposition mean that if you're going to play it as white, you have to be prepared to play against lots of different black defenses.
This one began as a Reti and transposed to a Semi-Slav. Enjoy!
That Bxf7+ sac ended the game much quicker than I expected.

The usual King gambit ended on 11-th move due to Blacks leaving the center and then handling consequences of Bxf7 breakthrough/sacrifice in not the best way:
I believe after Bxf7, Kxf7 and check with knight Ne5+ the situation becomes quite delicate. It is hard to defend against Qh5 because of unlucky previous h6 move. Though I suspect there were still escape plans at this point and later.

Bullet game where I played surprisingly well and won on time.
A game i played this morning. I consider it a draw because this is something i never would have done OTB or with time constraint. A fine example of good opening and middle game prowess, (except for the end part, which shouldn't count anyway)
vantangler,
Instead of 26.Rxc8, you could have played 26.Rd8 to stop the check, giving you a huge advantage. There was no luck involved and you essentially just blundered. Every part of the game counts whether you messed up or not, therefore White won the game.
