D'oh! There must be something wrong with your pgn. I've been trying to conform it, but it's not working.

3.Ng8 is certainly an impossible move. As is 10.Qe3d2 [the Q is not on e3!].

(The only thing you had wrong on your pgn was move 3.)

Good game!

Nice played game there. I have the same line but the checkmate came one move faster. Here comes traxler game with more direct 7... Qh4 😛

If combined, no.

Separated 1. f4 or 1. g4 can be quite interesting weapons (but, especially with 1. g4 you should know what are you doing.)

1.e4;e5 2.f4;exf5 3.Nf3;d5 4Nc3;dxe4 5.Nxe4;Bg4 6.Qe2;Bxf3 7.Nf6# !!

Kings gambit accepted which has gone wrong... horribly..
Obviously Bxf3 is the clincher
Hip hooray Meek is the man

Obviously my memory failed me, this is the game I have referred to, but obviously Meek did not play F4 and g4 .. but still a very cool game

That's not fair! A guy who's 32-2 let's you mate him in 2 moves?? Why doesn't anyone let me do that to them?? And, you're a good enough player that you don't need that kind of help. 🙂

You should have offered a draw after his second move. (j/k)
