I recently started expermenting with The Evan's gambit (diagram below) with my friend. I have found it to be a sharp and entirely playable way to start a game. So far in, I'm 3-0-0 with it. In the middle of the games I spotted a couple of tactical sequences that I thought would be beneficial for the rest of the community and decided to show them. Find the correct move and Have fun! After you complete the puzzle feel free to look at the solution and see my explanations on the moves. A small note: In the puzzle, the king is supposed to be on h1, not g1...some people might be wondering about a couple of moves, and I'm simply informing everyone that the white king isn't located on the proper square...My bad!

Black could play 1... Bxc3.
But he didn't find that!. If it is redeeming at all though, we were both under time pressure at this point and we spotted it in the analysis...Maybe I should point that out in the notes?
I fixed it...the first move still works, just a little revamp.
