Interesting game. I really wouldn't have noticed how important f4 was, so the notes about 9.e4 are instructive.
The fight on the queenside was interesting, with black ultimately giving up the c4 pawn. That feels a bit like time pressure though, it seems like black should have something better. Also white giving up the queen, but it's hard to find good moves in blitz with all of black's pieces attacking.

Yeah, I was trying to find some improvement over c4, cause even with Black's Rd3! it is hard to hold the c4-pawn in its place.
Yeah lol, he probably missed it.
The middlegame was relatively well played and White showed cool tenacity and found a way to get counterplay when it just looked like he was gonna get steamrolled, however towards the end of the game the quality of play decreased.
People usually forget about the f4 square and get destroyed in those London Systems lol. There is even a game where Bronstein plays Bf5 daring White to play e4 and he doesnt!
Here is the game:
Geez, the computer says I missed some stuff. Mostly tactical. Here is the PGN with computer evaluation.
I found this interesting game online and would like to discuss it, what do you think about my analysis? I am probably missing some stuff either strategically or tactically.
Im trying to get stronger at analyzing with 0 engines, as this is should improve my OTB strenght (at the end of the day analyzing with 0 engines is what you do OTB).
So, gimme feedback! Or just enjoy my patzer annotations, the game was a blitz game but boy was it good.
PD : I feel sorry for the London.
