I love how you use double check for a checkmate. 
The moves themselves aren't that special or anything, but...It comes down to a checkmate in like 10 moves!

Good use of a double-check.
lmao @ this guy's description of the openings. dude honestly, where did you learn your openings from? it's no wonder you're still in the 1100-1200
so mean...
rootworm, Philidor sicilian is 1. e4 c5 2. bc4 e6 or some combination thereof.

Maybe you need to look up your openings. According to GM's John Emms and Richard Palliser, "black has scored an outstanding 59% after 3. d4- I would wager this makes the O'kelly the highest scoring open sicilian for black" (Dangerous Weapons: the sicilain P. 253).
I put content on Chess.com because its fun, and I feel like I learn something by doing my best to analyze it, not because I'm great at chess. And as for 1100-1200, being rated this on chess.com with super long time controls is far different than playing 8 minute blitz chess on fics and being rated 1100-1200.
