In the meantime check out this game I am very proud off that would have been my toughest ever opponent if they weren't provisional. Also ended with a cheeky under promotion mate. Does anyone else have an under promotion mate to share?

Great conversion! Your opponent putting the queen on the semi open C file was a pretty big inaccuracy IMO. I find QGD positions a bit boring, but this game was a ton of fun thanks to the quick queen side expansion.
I've been playing the Taimanov a lot lately, and had to learn a bit of theory when facing the Alapain to avoid those exact issues.
