Good game, fellows. I haven't looked over the game with a computer yet, but my thoughts just from playing it: at the start of move 18, I liked the Black position. The ensuing moves I made for Black were probably all suboptimal. In retrospect, I wish I'd closed off the Kingside with ...f4 when I had a chance, but at the time, I still didn't see a strong White threat on the Kingside—on the contrary, I didn't want to close off play there too soon, because I was still playing for a win.

19...Qh4 was pretty clearly a bad move in retrospect, I think. At the time, we thought it would weaken White a little on the Kingside by inducing h3 and pinning the g-pawn to the defense of the h-pawn. We completely overlooked the tactical move 22. g4 that White played. Only after it was played did we realize that the hanging h-pawn could not be taken in this case.

The losing move, in my opinion, was likely 23...b5. We played it without much analysis. After, 24. PxP, we analyzed more and calculated that taking the pawn back with the Rook would lead to an endgame wherein we were down a pawn and had very bad chances, in our opinion. 25...Bd7 was nothing more than a desperate attempt to avoid the loss we saw coming in the hopes that we could find something better in a line we hadn't analyzed much yet, but as the game shows, it offered nothing better.

Well, gg qrs, it was hell of a fight.

Regarding the game: I feel that playing 12...e5 was a serious error as your f7-Knight eventually got tied down to the defense of d6 and you had no more chance to control d5-square with a pawn. I completely agree that ...f4 would be a strong move when you had a chance to play it, especially since we played quite dubious 15. Rhf1. 19...Qh4 was very confusing and probably lost you too much time to hold the game after exchanges. (I'm not sure anymore what was wrong about recapturing on f5, though). Anyway, we did lots of work regarding 29...Ke7 (instead of 29...Kg7 which loses outright) and there would be probably lots of work for us to do to convert the advantage even though we were quite confident that we're winning an Exchange.

EDIT: Today, I'm departing for Christmas, but I made some notes and probably will publish a blog with the detailed analysis of the game once I come back. Thanks to all participants! Merry Christmas and a Happy Checkmate!
