This is the starting position of king's Indian Defense, it is very seldom to see this opening played at the top tournament, the only Super GM keep playing this opening is GM Teimour Radjabov that is why he is my favorite GM

this move signifies that black wants to win, the reasoning behind of that is because of the opposite color bishop if black allows the knight exchange the game is more likely drawish 23.Rxd4

black has a plan to put his knight on e5 via g6-e5]
10...f5
[here I know that the mainline is a5! 10...a5
but instead of playing through the mainline I decided playing the alternative one, my logic behind of Nf4 move is so simple, first my opponent doesn't know the line so well, therefore, I can just trick him by playing a line that is not so familiar to him. Second, I don't want to play for both wings which is normally happen after the move 10. .. a5, my plan is to play purely at the kingside 11.bxa5

12.Bxf4?
I put "?" on this move for simple reason. a.) white shouldn't waste his pair bishops, b.) that captures give me two bishops and also made my B on g7 so strong, c.) the e5 square now is an ideal place for my knight via knight-g6-e5 and d.) the d-file can be exploited quickly by black's pieces

15.Be4
the knight on f5 is not that strong compare to the knight on f3 because knight on f5 jeopardize the B on c8 in other words they are fighting for the same space

at this position I pondered for atleast 20minutes, I know it is pretty weird to think that long at this non complex position but my consideration and theory here is deeper than you thought. Here, I was thinking that this position is kinda scary due to the presence of opposite color bishop and I know that factor is notoriously drawish! but the idea of taking the Knight is quite resonable until I missed something! [17...f3!
I was considering this move but it is not my first choice, I thought the line that I played is quite stronger and enough to win but all the sudden I was so mad at myself that I made a mistake regarding on "opposite color bishop theory" 18.Ng3

now I have to switch my plan A to plan B, this is what I kept telling to my students that "a good move must have multiple ideas and if your plan A won't work atleast you have plan B to run on" it is pretty rewarding to know this, thanks for this thoughts [19...f3?
it was my original plan, its horrible! 20.Bxf3

20.c5?
Too slow, I was so happy when he played this move and I know that I can win this game now. That move is just favorable for black because that opens up the route of g7 bishop via g7-f6-d8 and eventually b6!

this move is just an equal position although I still like black here, it is a matter of preference I guess; 21.cxd6!
I gave an exclamation move on it just because white wants to win! and I am a type of player that hates draw! 21...cxd6
