A Classic Morphy Game.

Recently I readed that Morphy could win with 8. Bxf7+ Qxf7 9. Qxb7+-, but as Lasker said, Morphy did a treatment of an artist, not of a butcher.

 No chance! This variation is against the basic principle of fast development. 9. .... Bc5 10. Qxa8 0-0 and white is in trouble. He lost all his advantage in development, black is now beter developed and had strong attack. 11. 0-0? c6! and white queen is traped (12. ... Qc7, 13. .... Nd7).
