Accidental win

Here’s my most memorable game from the UM Tourney last Saturday. It’s a bad game as I blundered as early as move 12. with Bd2 allowing a fork that loses the exchange. However instead of simply winning the exchange with 13. .. Nf2+, Black chose a more fancy move with 13. .. Nxh2? . That just allowed me to bring out pieces to aim at Black’s King side. White’s Knight sac on move 18 was accidental as I could not think of anything better. In fact, before the move I was ready to resign. Pretty silly game but I liked it because it was really a “win by accident”.
