Slaying the Dragon

Apologies for the cliche title :)

This is a game I played today on FICS as white against the Sicilian Dragon (hyper-accelerated). I make a great positional pawn sac in the middle game that leads to an exciting attack and a beautiful mate.

Comments?

ps-For future reference, is there any way to insert variations into the game diagrams?

Nice work.  As an accelerated dragon I've suffered many similar defeats but if I can equalize &/or get a slight advantage by move 15 I usually win.  Definitely a sharp opening that you outplayed your opponent on here.

I think 11. g5 would have been rather a mistake...You win a pawn, but at the cost of letting his c8 bishop get into an active position and his rook sliding to c8 from a8. your move seemed more logical to me.

As the game is, you completely outplayed your opponent. Well done.

Very nice.  I love beating the Dragon!!  How about "Exit the Dragon"
