I thought this game I played was rather a cute queen sacrifice.

ok, let's see if you can solve it:

Simply, the fact that opening the center is correct because black 's king is uncastled.

ugh, just checked it with my engine. e5 is refuted by Qxa4 winning several pawns in the process Cry

That's o.k I still like the game

Unfortunately, though, Abhishek and I found that 2...Qxa4 3 exf6 Qxa2 is lost for white. For example 4 Qe1 Bxf6! threatening b2, and black is up material for insufficient compensation.

1.e5 was OK, but ...

1...QxN/a4; 2.exf6, BxP/f6; just leaves White a Pawn down.

Eubas's line might be even better, I did not use an engine.
