I was expecting more.
How many attempts you needed to find the right move?
Sort:
More? This is only 11th move and it is 10+ moves before mate, but this move was decisive. Sorry if it is not level 2000+ ....

I think you misunderstand me, you need to show more moves. To many, it will appear that Black has just gotten his pawn back. It's White's passive position that needs to be seen. How did the game finish?
solution is to near from a puzzle...
Hint in the first comment.
If you opened the solution - let this will be enigma for you :)

google tells me that Raymond Keene was playing Black.
I got it on the first try. I saw the hanging knight and knew to resist it because it would mean losing our own knight. So I decided to find a spot to attack with our own knight. My initial thought was to go after the queen but then their hanging knight would just take so I went for the rook. And boom, got it on the first try. Woot!
This is beautiful Masters game (don't try to find it in Chess.com database :) There is a gambit named after one of them and some defences after another. Enjoy and don't forget to answer the question from the title ;)
