MY WORST GAME EVER
Hi, ..3Nd4 is a trappy move by your opponent, encouraging you to play the "natural " Nxe5", in which case you would lose! (check out "Kostic trap"). The correct reply to this trappy move therefore is simply 4NxNd4, after which White has a comfortable edge. Hope I helped.
dude667, thanks for the references, it helped me on learning the Kostic trap. Now, what do you think about this sequence?

Oh, and commenting on the line you suggested: ..6g6, 7Nxg6 Nf6 8Qh4 Bg7, engine actually indicates 8Qe5+ keeping White better. With some tricky exchanges as the line goes on with 9... Be7 10Nxe7 Nxc2+ 11Ke1 Qxe7+ 12 Qxe7 Kxe7 13Kxc2 and white is better.
Funny, this line feels like the game goes from opening to end game almost without middle game

Hi, I'm glad I helped and I thank you for correcting me. Indeed in the line I gave white emerges on top (I totally missed Qxe5+) so I deleted it from my text. Anyway, since it is quite a sharp situation, I suggest you just run it through the computer. In your First diagram, cancel ..5Kd8 and make it ..5Ke7. Which takes us to your second diagram, Fritz gives an advantage of about -1.20 for black after 7Bd5 ...Nf6. Take care!
