Hope so

You should include in the move list that other king moves after Ng5+ lose the queen to Ne6.

Yeah, I was wondering why Black doesn't go back onto normally spot.  Thx for pointing out queen is lost.  So that's why you don't play Modern Defence against White's Italian thing going on.  Gotcha

So the best move for black is to not take the bishop on the first move. Life for black isn't exactly fine after that, but there is no combination that wins against it is there?
