An attacking masterpiece in the Nimzo-Indian in which I allowed my opponent to conquer my kingside by weakening a single key square. He punished it beautifully and finished me off in a couple of moves.

This game is a great example of how positional weaknesses can lead to massive tactical problems. I weakened f4, failed to cover it in time, and my opponent simply brought all his pieces close and broke through. I had no idea what was going on.

The basic attacking principle in chess is bringing more pieces into the attack than your opponent has defending the king. That's what happened. He had more firepower and I was defenseless once I allowed that.
