Take this game for example. I was very happy with this game. By moves 15 and 16 I was able to gain the fabled outpost. However, he had to ruin all by walking into a fork. I won, but - Bummer.

Some notes:
15. Bxc6 - I was afraid to take the horse as his bishop is bearing down on my king-side, but -
16. Ne5 - The previous move was done to establish this outpost (actually moves 12,13, and 14 was done exactly to setup this one move). There were some small tactical threat at this moment, and i was counting on them to negate the threat of his bishop and queen. I think i made the right choice. You could imagine my delight when i was able to place that horsey on e5. Now i have a strategically won game i told myself (Achieving strategic advantage such as this is as rare as rain in a dessert in my games)
The next step, he will play the the freeing move c5. I just knew it. So my moves from here on is meant to take advantage of that fact.
17. Rfe1 - To free my queen, the queen will go to c4 to counter the c5 advance
18. Qc4 - All according to plan - he is helping me conduct the game => the next few moves were already calculated.

21. .. Bb5 - I didn't calculate this. Why did he have to do it... why!?
A nice clean game. The sort of game Tempo would have liked to play ;)
But if you want to play like Nezhmetdinov, you maybe should have opted for a different approach. Did you consider castling long? 10. c3 was too passive, the pawn did not need extra defending. I would have considered 10. Qd2 or even sacrificing the pawn with 10. Qe2 Nxd4 11. Nxd4 Qxd4 12. 0-0-0
