Castling on opposite sides

Here is a g10 game I just played... incorrect opening + underdevelopment + pawn storm yields white the win. Please give me your thoughts.

very nicely done.

Ok, played another game with a similar theme. This time it was G20. Unfortunately, the text wasn't working for me. It's not technically castling on opposite sides, but has the same themes. This time, I needed a sacrifice to break through. One decoy sacrifice (Bxa7+) and one clearance sacrifice (e4+). I had the white pieces.

Paul Morphy would have moved 6. Qb3

I like the pawn move for checkmate in the second...

Yep, 6. Qb3 is the best
