It seems as I'm going through my games, I'm finding different games with similar elements. The benefit to you is cross-referencing structure and key points to discern for yourself consistency. As it stands, thank you for your time in learning from my games.
Key points: opening theory, winning the exchange, middle game theory, and saving the endgame.
Key moments: Move 26 (Rc1, Bxe5)
This allowed a sneaky (Nc6, Bd6)
Winning the exchange (Nxe7+, Bxe7)
Move 32 (Rxe6, Bf6) has a nice idea, but ultimately is a mistake. 33 (Rxf6, Kxf6) 34 (h8=Q+, Rxh8) results in winning the rook, however just how good will my rook stand against the last hope of an army marching for promotion?
Spoiler alert: the answer is in the thumbnail.
The noble Rook gives itself up to eliminate the final threat of the 4 pawns, and in the process saving the ganged up pawn on g2.
