Mate in 21, again with the Latvian Gambit. It was a 10-minute game. Let me know what you think. Smile

I had a look through my online and live  games , I'm not gonna post all of them.

A 10-minute game, won in 11 moves.

Here's a 23 move mate miniature, beginning with the Calabrese Countergambit. Let me know what you think! Smile

Here's a game filled with blunders, from both sides. Still, the final move is rather neat. Smile

I don't follow you, smiley15. I'm playing White, and Black cannot play 18...Qxe1+. What exactly did you mean?

Cigol, why can't you simply play 18...Qxe1+, winning a whole Rook?


I think he's referring to your previous post, #250. Wink

Ah! But of course! I guess I could, but I was too tuned in on the Queen+Bishop mate in the corner.

Here's a wild western gunfight with a Latvian Gambit gone wrong, but miraculously won in the end, down no less than 3 pawns and 2 Rooks for a single Knight! 

 

It was a 10-minute game.

All of CigoL's gambit posts make me feel compelled to post a couple King's Gambit games I've played.

thew..., I especially like the first one! Smile There surely are some similarities between this and the Latvian Gambit.

Another Latvian Gambit. This time White didn't want any of Black's pawn sacs.
