Five years ago, I played some awful games on Yahoo and saved them for future learning. What could I have done in this game to (a) stop the threat against f7 and (b) take advantage of White's time-wasting with his knight? I know it's hard to analyze awful games but it's only a few moves:
1 e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. Nf3 Nc6 4. Ng5 d5 5. exd5 Nxd5 6. Nxf7 Kxf7 7. Qf3+ Ke8 8. Bxd5 Bc5 9. Qf7# 1-0
I'd put the ?'s in but there are too many! Thanks.
Originally posted by HolyTI think the simplest would have been 7...Ke6. If needed the Knight can be further supported with Nce7.

Originally posted by HolyTHey, that might have been versus me! I played several games with this uncorrect system as white ( 6. d4 is better than Nxf7)

If black knows this line very well and plays 7. Ke6 it will lead to an advantage for black. but in blitz its a nice suprise weapon to have in ones arsenal.
