Any better?
Sort:
Here is a game which I did eventually win but should I have taken better advantage of this situation, I work out that I can win his queen in exchange for a pawn, a rook, and a knight . . . so all square. Is there a mate anywhere??
yes there is a forced mate, sacrificing ur knight is a gd idea but then 4. Qxg+ is much better. 4... Ke7 (only move) 5. Qg7+ 5... Kd6 (again the only move) 6. e5#
CHECKMATE!!
I see the logic in your moves and i think i would've done it about the same way.
But, from move 5. Qxg6+ ; kf4 6.Rf3 is a mate.
I see that many times you almost had a mate if that knight was defended or that pawn on move 6. but I think sacrificing one move on your attack might have ruined it all.
going for the queen was the safe yet long way
my bad, bastiaan's right...
BUT my way is forced mate as well!!

ok sorry bastiaan but black wouldnt play 5... Kf4, he would play 5... Ke4
u have to assume black plays the best defense
After 5. Qxg6+, 5. ... Ke4 is illegal due to the king remaining in check. 5. ... Kf4 is forced, and then 6. Rf3 is indeed mate.
After 4.Rxg6+ it's over.
