Wael, I will be sure to use another ladder. Did you notice that I had two queens and a rook during the endgame? By the way, I lost the two games after that.

1)I do not understand 7.Qe2
You should develop the bishop and the queen at e2 blocks the bishop f1

2)Why not 10.Qxe4 that wins a piece?
Were you afraid of 10...Qxe4 when you did not see that the knight is not pinned after that move or maybe you planned 10.Qxb4 Bxb4 11.Nxe4 when you did not see that 11.Nxe4 is illegal because the knight is pinned after 10...Bxb4

3)Why 13.Nce2?
It is better to play 13.Nb5 that threat 14.Nc7+
13.Nce2 blocks the bishop so it prevents you to develop your pieces

4)Why 14.Rc3 that sacrifices the rook?
Did you think later to play Bxg7
Maybe it can works against a weak player but if you want to learn to play better it is better not to assume stupid blunders of the opponent.

5)Why 17.Bxg7?
It was better to play first 17.Rxc5 so at least you get a bishop for the rook c4 inspite of the fact that your opponent insisted that you get that bishop by playing Bxf2+ for no logical reason

Based on this game my estimate is that the rating of the players was lower than 1375.

I saw games of players with rating 1300-1400 and their level is higher than it.

Something is clearly broken in Deep Sjeng handicap mode because no player at level of 1401 will play moves like 11...Nxc2+

It is possible to simulate 1401 level of playing strength by making that blunder and playing later like a strong player(playing like 1700 player after blundering a piece is enough and you do not need to play like a GM) but deep sjeng does not do it and it continues to blunder also later when it miss a draw against you.

32...Kf6 could be enough for a draw after you blundered by 29.g7 and 30.Kg5
29.Rh8+ was a simple win for white and there are more blunders by both sides that I do not mention here.
