Hi. This is a game I played with a friend over a cup a coffee to day. We are close to equal chess players, and we often play long games together. But not this day. It was very short. I have never been familiar with sacrifice play, so i wonder if some of you look at it and see if this is sound or just ridiculous and care-less. Thanks you.

Gosh, I'm sure a computer, or a stronger player will find holes in your game, and I  just have a hunch (I'll go back and look carefully) that your opponent was a little sluggish in the opening and could have started taking advantage sooner... but my first impression looking at these move was:

Wow!!! You've channeled the spirit of Morphy!!! Bravo. Play on!

It really looks like one of thsoe wonderful games out of the mid-19th century.

I think that White could weather the storm by playing Bxc6+...either on the 12th or 13th moves.  Once your queen knight enters the fray, it looks hopeless for him.  This game reminds me by the way of the resources Black can muster in the Giuoco Piano when White castles too early; there are a lot of great sacks/attacks in those situations.  Very entertaining game!

Thanks. I guess you are right about The Bxc6+ move. But i still have an attack going after bxc6. But i dont know really. Maybe that was the move to refute it.
