This is my game of the month, a game where I sacked an exchange and 2 pieces to deliver mate. What do you think about my opening ;) ?

Hello, I was very proud of this game against an WFM. Thank you for checking my game.

It has a pretty queen sacrifice mate. I also noticed I am one of the few, if not only games featuring a titled player.

I remember being somewhat disappointed that 27. Qe8+ does not lead to a mate because of 27. ... Re8!, but pretty much the same rather uncommon mating pattern (also with queen sacrifice) happened after a couple of moves anyway.

A 19 move win against a 2425 FM involving a queen sacrifice, with 0 inaccuracies, mistakes or blunders.

Despite its comparative brevity, I like this game quite a lot: White's moves from the beginning onwards were precise, aggressive and flawless, the opponent was a strong titled player, and the coup de grace queen sacrifice is not only by far the strongest move in the position but also a rather beautiful conclusion. In particular the position after 18. e7 is a rare sight: White is a full queen down and still clearly winning.
