In this match with 15 minute time control, I found myself under fire of my opponent's aggression after I made a greedy move. The tide quickly turned, however, with one nice tactical operation. Enjoy!

Wow!  That's castling the long way!  Crazy game & a nice way to dig yourself out of a hole!

Nice save.  FYI  16 0-0 would not have destroyed your plan... same idea:

16. 0-0 Nxd4 17.Qxd4? f3! 18.Bxf3? Bxh2+!

 Right you are!

Nice trap, however:

1. You could have saved the knight;

2. Your decision to abandon the knight was better positionally;

3. The best line would have been 8. .. Kf8
