A missed turn on the A17

1. c4 Ng8f6 2. Nb1c3 e6 3. a3
As addressed in a previous game, this move is most likely too passive, and theory suggests Nf3 or e4 was better... but I just like to stop Bb4
3... d5 4. cxd5 exd5 5. d4 c6 6. Ng1f3 h6 7. e3 Bc8g4 8. Bf1e2 Bg4xf3
First unbalance of the game, Black removes the defender of h2, at the cost of a Bishop
9. Be2xf3 Bf8d6 10. O-O O-O 11. e4
? I thought at first this move was probably bad (further development would have been better) but I wanted to see
11... dxe4 12. Nc3xe4 Nf6xe4 13. Bf3xe4
Black can now win a pawn with 13... Bxh2 14. Kxh2 Qh4+ 15. Kg1 Qxe4
13... Qd8c7
White had missed that tactic, but so did Black
14. g3 Nb8d7 15. b4 Nd7f6 16. Be4c2 Rf8e8 17. Bc1b2 Nf6d5 18. Qd1d3 Nd5f6
"Easy!" my opponent messaged me... he wants to stop checks on h7
19. d5
But due to the Knight being supported only by the g7 pawn, this check is still on... Black should play something like Be5
19... cxd5
This move effectively loses the game
20. Bb2xf6 gxf6 21. Qd3h7 Kg8f8 22. Qh7xh6 Kf8e7 23. Rf1e1 Ke7d8
? Again Be5 was probably the best move... White could now win this game in a number of ways
24. Qh6xf6 Bd6e7 25. Qf6xf7
Leaves the Bishop on c2 hanging, but if Black takes...
