In this game my opponent wasted a bunch of time just pushing pawns and not castling. I tried putting my pieces on active squares, but was unable to mount a successful attack. My opponent traded queens, but then I found a few nice tactics in the endgame.1e4+0.2e6+0.32d4+0.3h6+0.73Bd3+0.6a5+0.94f4+0.4...I didn't want my knight blocking the pawn. now my rook will be developed where it stands after I castle4...c6?!+1.5Inaccuracy. d5 was best.4...d55.Nc3Bb46.e5Ne77.Nf3b68.O-OBxc39.bxc35Nf3+1.3b5+1.76O-O+1.5a4+2.07f5+1.5...black isn't ready for the game to open up7...Bb7?+3.0Mistake. exf5 was best.7...exf58.exf58Nc3+2.5Qb6+3.09Be3+3.0Ne7?+5.0Mistake. exf5 was best.9...exf510.Nh4b411.Qf3Kd812.Nxf5d513.Ne2dxe414.Bxe4Nf615.Nxh610Qe1?!+3.8...lichessInaccuracy.
