Very bad novice moves on the middlegames

[Chessqueen]

This is an example of the Black Bishop being placed in prison by his own pawn on move 12....c5?
also the Black Queen retrieved to a bad square on this move 15...Qc7? instead of guarding the Knight on f6, to prevent his pawn in front of his King from opening up messing his pawns structures ,and the final and worse blunder of the Black Bishop move 20...Be8? doing nothing instead of exchanging the Bishop on move 20...BxB!

In the previous game we saw Nathan resigning with the black pieces, because he saw his Black Bishop blocked by his own pawns on c5 and his King's pawn structure open up, probably he got scare and thought that he did NOT had a chance to Draw. But if he would had continue and fought hard he could had a draw. Remember no matter in what bad situation you find yourself never ever resign always, always fight to the very end.

Incredible beginners game and ofc Black should have won, but may be he was even weaker than your 1000 rating, because he couldn't even calculate one ply after you made so much horrible opening moves (more than your opponent) and let your Knight be trapped ;)

A child would find b5 quickly after 14. Bg5 (I needed less than 1 second). 13. Nxd4 was ???? -+ game over.

Please never comment real OTB games here again (not speaking about your online and computer cheats ofc).

Yes White should had played 12.Nac3 to prevent the knight from being trapped by b5, but chess is about the player the makes the least amount of blunders, in the past I had given him a full knight odds and still he could not beat me, just like you can NOT beat Stockfish with a Knight Odd
