Game 5 - An interesting draw.

Could it have gone differently?  I don't know. Comments and critiques welcome, as always.

My biggest blunder was pushing the b pawn to b5, probably.

    Yeah, trading off my queen was probably a bad idea - I'm still working on it.

     to Kasermajstor - thanks for all that input. It helped!

    it looks like you and your opponent loves trading = ) I am not a good player so I can't comment a lot but usually in king's gambit, you should take the advantage and develop as much as possible and move the queen only when you needed to take the black's knight like 6 Qxf3...but if your opponent goes to the point where he wanted to trade of your queen...have fun, but king's gambit doesn't go easy without queen =_=" that's just my opinion and king's gambit is always my favor = ))

    on move 4, try d4 instead. Trading the pawns didnt get you anywhere. You have to practice the King gambit a bit more to perfect central dominance.
