I can not understand this move. Looks aggressive but there is not enough pieces. I want the classic 3...a6 or 3...Nf6 to open your game. Anyway it´s style´s matter

5. exf5 e4 6. Ng5 d5 7. d3 h6
Well I think there is no reason to fear. 7...Bxf5 and you have another piece to play

 
8. Bxc6+
Well, he did not see 8.Ne6 at first

 
8... bxc6 9. Nh3
Hey kain-, there is a God for you, obviously with 9.Ne6 he is making a great investment, because he would gave back the gambit and after the attack to your pawn structure it would seems like a greek ruins

 
9... Bxf5
Oh the beatifull of chess, after this bad move (9.Nh3?) you are with a little advantage. He has one bad knight, and you have two bishops in an open game. At this time its difficult to exploit your pawn´s structure. Anyway he has to play against your pawns and move 10.dxe4

 
10. Nf4 Bd6
kain- you have to accept that 10...exd3 is a better move because you are free of this weakness in e4, what is the head on this structure

 
11. O-O O-O 12. g3 Bxf4
Nooo! Oh my god. That was the bad horse and you are eating bad quality meat. Your better bishop were this one because your other bishop seems like a big pawn containing your pawns, and besides the white bishop is without space and you make it free. I like the more aggressive 12...Bg4

 
13. Bxf4 exd3 14. cxd3 Bh3
I like 14...d4, retaining the d3 pawn and making space for Nd4

 
15. Re1 Ng4 16. f3 Nf6
Sometimes believe in your attack, even better 16...g5 and if 17.Bxc7 Qxc7 18.fxg4 Qb6 19.d4 Qb2 20.Ne2 Bxg4 and you are confortable

 
17. Be5 Re8 18. d4 Nh7
Why not 18...Nd7. The white bishop seems like a big radar

 
19. Kf2 Rf8
Dont like 19...Rb8 ?

 
20. Re3
20.Re3! I dont know but I think he wants to take the e column with heavy metal

Better 25...g5 to go against the f column

 
26. Qxa7 Nxf4 27. Nxf4
That was a definitive move because you have a bad bishop, your rooks are not playing in concert and he wants to get the e column

 
27... g5 28. Ng6 Qd8 29. Ne5 Rf6 30. g4 h5 31. gxh5 Bc8 32. a4 Ra6 33. Qc5
Well its not only the e column, but the c one

 
33... Bf5 34. Rg1
And the g column

 
34... Kh7 35. Rxg5 Kh6
You dont forget, you still have a queen, better 35...Qd6

 
36. f4
Better 36.Qc1, and if you play 36...Kg5 37.Nf7 Rf7 38.Re8 and lost the queen
