For my first post, I thought I'd show a game I played recently as white.  Black played the sicilian defence, and as usual I got myself into all sorts of trouble against it. 

After move 21 I had some real headaches, and I was down in material. I was lucky, more than anything, to spot a winning combination. Can you see it too?

Very nice combination.

I was looking for mate, too.

Well done!!

Nice combination, according to me, black went so much on defensive.

 Anyway nice attack

Very nice.  Finding things like that over the board isn't easy.

Not too bad. Part of it looked like an obvious mate net and the remainder was effective in its own way.
