Just looking through some of the better players games and found this one:

Game 1831213

This game also shows how the mating net was quickly formed.

It also shows the weakness of the kingside and how it can be exploited.

2. Nc3 Nf6
3. Bc4 Nxe4
4. Qf3 Nd6
5. Bb3 Nc6
6. Nb5 f6

8. Nxd6+ Ke7
9. Nf7 Nb4
10. Qc5 Ke8

12. Nxh8 Bg7
13. a3 Nc6
14. Nf7 Nd4
15. Qxc7 Nxb3
16. Nd6+
1-0
Resigned, thought he would lose his queen to battle on, so gave up, and i know the person i played, so we played on and i increased my lead significantly and mated after about 30moves
