NEW SPEEDRUN: How to Win Quickly with Tricks and Traps

This is a preliminary episode to my new series: The Tricks and Traps Speedrun. Before starting the actual Speedrun, I played a dozen chess games on my new account to get an established rating. These games show how to play an aggressive, tricky and trappy style of chess and punish amateur mistakes and win quickly. After these games, my account’s rating will be reset, and the actual speedrun will begin!

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵‍💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.
