I was surprised by both h5 and Nxe4 (dxe4 and Black is doomed... of course I am wrong) good mate though.

Nice - but wouldn't Qh1 or Qg3 have been a little more elegant! (mating with fewer pieces!) 😀

This one turned out like something straight from the books. White to play and win in three.

My most beloved Traxler is Game 3961249
in the end I was two rooks and a pawn back
( only the last 5 or 6 moves were not in the book! )

This is the only game I can think of where I sacrificed my Queen, and even this is more through luck than anything else; there is probably a defence.
