Learn the Rules like a Pro, Break them like an Artist..5

Learn the rules like a pro, break them like an artist. The rule says don’t push the pawns in front of your castled king. In this 10|0 game I had White against InternationalMoron. I castled with 8.O-O, then broke the rule with 13.g4, which won the knight on f5 after 13…g6 14.gxf5 gxf5. But the g-file was now open, and Black’s rooks took it with 17…Rhg8 and 21…Rdg8. Black’s a-pawn did the rest: 30…bxa4, 32…a3, 36…a2 and 44…a1=Q+. 48…Qg3# was the price of an open king. I won the knight and lost the game.
