Midgame Mahem!!!!

So here's a recent midgame of mine. I chopped off the endgame because it's irrelevant for my purposes :). Any help would be appreciated because I KNOW i didn't come up with the sharpest possible variations :(

I would actually say that your endgame is weak and needs improvement. The reason is: you play moves with out realizing the serious pawn structure repercusions and thus fail to see their actual dynamic potential. All I see is that you failed to fight properly for the d5 square after playing e5. End result you have TWO backward pawns on open files and a lost (or close to it) endgame. I think your opponents move 30. Was a blunder giving a beautiful knight for a horrid bishop.

Positional books and endgame books can help you. "Simple Chess", "Chess fundementals" and any endgame book. I would also reccomend you to play more classical openings where positional themes are easy to catch on.

Not true :). The game is still going (it's about 35 moves ahead of where I posted it to be) and I have an advantage. Chess isn't just about the nuances and the theory. Sometimes it's just about making the best tactical move, which is what I was concerned with in my middle game.

Chess tactics come from a positionaly superior postion, tactics are the answers not the game. Well if you ever want to get better you know what to do.

Edit: @thesexyknight- I didn't mean to be rude or address you like a begginer, I am sorry. I gave some honest advice you can take it or leave it as you see fit. 

There was some truth to what he'd said so I'll appreciate the logic of it. But it was a bit condescending, yes

Well in any case it was a rather obnoxious way to begin the diaglogue and I don't see how he can comment on your endgame without actually seeing your endgame.  Also, he ignored your acutal question, which was how to sharpen and improve your middle game play, right?

ty polydiatonic for putting something productive on this forum . I probably shouldn't have even moved that queen in the first place :(

Don't worry about it :). The apology is much appreciated.

I recall considering Nb4, but now that you mention it I have no idea why I didn't play it. I have have feared some sort of pin on the knight to the queen or a pawn push for serious counterplay. But you line there looks solid

ur welcome...trying to be a good citizen :)

Doesn't mean I can't play Nb4 lol

I don't like 23. Qg4. I think this queen needs to get out of the way so the g pawn can advance and tear open black's kingside.

I AM black in this game lol. Help me! not him!

I thought you caught what went wrong, like Bd8 preserves your bishops, but on e7 is was preforming a useful function, and on d8 it's not headed anywhere :)

I thought you came out of the opening with a good position, I like tonydal's suggestion of exf4 -- the way I justify the move is that I'm going to get a knight on e5, and yes also prevents f5 (which is usually good for white in the Sicilian anyway) and so your light bishop has scope.  The knight on d5 is well placed of course, but it does black no good to fixate on it -- I saw a game where black ignored it and played on the wings and won pretty easily.  Don't know if you were worried about it or not during the game, just for future reference :)
