a very interesting game which is well played by my opponent
1. e4 e5 2. d4
queens pawn sacrafice

 
2... exd4
this is a sacrafice to gain development

 
3. Nf3
continuing development

 
3... Nc6 4. c3 dxc3 5. Bc4
queens side pawns are sacrificed to gain advantage on the kings side

 
5... cxb2 6. Bxb2 Bb4+
this check is expected

 
7. Nc3 Qe7
however the knight is pinned leaving e4 vunerable

 
8. O-O
the plan is to get control of the e-file

 
8... Nf6 9. Re1
his queen is not in a good position

 
9... O-O
castle to protect the queens position

 
10. e5
press for an advantage on the e-file

 
10... Ng4 11. Nd5
press an attack

 
11... Qd8
his queen has limited abilities

 
12. Re4
this move was premature but black must be concerned with the middle now

 
12... d6
attacks my advanced pawn and opens up the white diagonal for his bishop

 
13. a3
this was a mistake as his bishop doesnt threaten anything at its ucrrent position

 
13... Bc5
now its in a better position

 
14. h3
? ? - i should have lost the game here - knight to f2 forks the queen and rook

 
14... Ngxe5
? ? he missed it - he wont miss another one

 
15. Nxe5
i gladly trade my inactive knight for his which is in an aggressive position

 
15... dxe5
now im in the middle game three pawns down but in a slightly superior middle position
