Bxf2+ is very tempting and is probably the move I would play if I had this position.
Now Black can take the 'g' pawn, because it's with check!
After White moves his King, Black will take the pawn on f5, getting another pawn for the piece.
Black will soon castle and attack down the f-file. White will need to defend well to survive.

OK I tried to post David's post as pgn, I couldn't make it work. doesn't this site support pgns from set positions?

[b]WHITE to move.
So I take the position back and make it White to play it should work.

A very good OTB position for Black.[/b]
Except this is the real pgn. There is no pawn on f7, which makes it even better for black, because of 4. ... 0-0.

Black doesn't seem to be active enough for Bxf2, White can carry out Kg1 Bg2 h3 Kh2 as far as i can see and black struggles to put the white king in any real danger, with time enough to develop and bring out the sleeping queenside
from the initial start position. Forgot to knock off the f7 pawn.
Which does indeed make it better for Black.
perhaps Maxeattack would like to reconsider his post after
my deliberate error to see who was paying attention.
This is a chess player's OTB position.
Black will hit White when he unwinds. How does the b1 Knight
get out A3 (wow).
Black will reach APA (all pieces in acrtion) whilst both White Rooks
are still on a1 and h1. And then the extra piece won't count.
it is piece activity that counts.
Black's game will play itself.
White has a series of 'only moves to find. He is in blunderland.
OTB for any under 2000 this is an awkward position.
Play v a box - both sides. You will get an interesting game.
I'd class this as unclear. OTB edge and all the fun to Black.
