@ estragon doesnt h5 let me break him open even more he probably should of tried to counter attack on the queen side sooner

...h5 obviously weakens the kingside a little, but at least prevents the dreaded h file (especially against a fianchetto position) from opening up for the time being. However, in this specific case, it seems that the h5 knight is really exposed and won't be able to blockade for long, and if the h file ends up opening soon anyway then it was all a waste and black made his kingside even worse off. But as said above it's not an unheard of idea, and sometimes is good.

Black was just too slow, no sense of danger I guess :)

You played it very well, good game.

Very nice game. Black really never had any chance in this game and never generated any counterplay on the queenside. 20. Qxg6 was much stronger and is easily 1-0. Did you overlook this move or did you miscalculate after exd4?
