Hi Anastasios, I didn't see this forum until today, and I see that the 6 spots are taken. I still have 2 weeks of posts to go through here ...
Please do not discuss continuations of current game positions here.
Thank you.

Qf7 protects the knight ...
Ark guy please do not discuss positions which can come out of my current games. You have probably scared ArcherKnight off and also I have another game currently going.
Thank you in advance.
I am not scared :D
I challenged you ponz
Arkhimeedes, I suggest you use an engine to see why Qf7 is not good.
I can see with my eyes what happens but I I like to sacrifice :)
@archer good luck!

Thanks :) It will be difficult
ArcherKnight is newest challenger and the game is well underway.
ArcherKnight is playing fast and here is the game so far:
Mainline Novelty is playing the Rosentreter Gambit. He sacrifices a knight for two pawns but gets a big lead in development and Black's f7 pawn is weak.
The game with Michael Porcelli is over. He played fast and thus it was over sooner while others are just getting started. Thank you Michael for the game and being a good sport!
It was a great game, enjoyed the challenge :)
Both sides have developed, we are entering the middlegame. Black has played a novelty on move 11 according to my database (all games continued with 11...Nxb3).
Black has a better pawn structure and a bishop pair. White gained some space and central pawns. The rook on a1 activated in Bronstein style - without making a move (after the exchange on b3, a file was opened).
Black has a small advantage at this point but I do not feel it can be sufficient to gain anything serious. We will see who is right.
