you see, you give up your queen and a knight and your kings chance to castle all in just 5 moves.
anyone think I've found something that all the greatest players in the world for the past couple of hundred years haven't found?
But look at the compensation! Black's Knight is misplaced, your c1 Bishop is ready to be deployed, and your king is ready to support a central advance and is well equipped for the endgame. A very dynamic position indeed. In fact, I recall when I was a very young player I used to play in positions like these. I guess I lost my spark for chess and now don't play like that anymore 😛
