This game was great fun. Both players kept ignoring each other's threats in order to make more of their own. At one stage my opponent said "This is how chess should be played", and I agree. 1.e4e62.e5 I sometimes play this against the French just to get out of the standard lines.

My opponent's last two moves have been very good. He's not afraid to sac even when material down. 18.cxd4Qxd419.Nf3Bxf3 I could be in a bit of trouble if I take with the Q because of the weak d2 square. 20.gxf3Bd2+21.Kf1Qxb2 Ignoring my threat of Qxe6 22.Qxe6+ Ignoring his threat of Qxa1 Kb823.Kg2Be3 For a moment, I try to decide which rook to protect the f-pawn with, but the I see... 24.Qxe3 Black resigned. A shame for the game to end like that, especially when he's still got threats like Qg7. 1–0
