Just had this game and thought it was a little instructional. Especially about why the f6 move should never be played. Plus the crisscross mate is kind of cool.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 f6 - Damiano defense. Black should not play that defense. It's not good for black.

11...d6? Ouch.

Yeah, I like the criss-crossing bishops mate.

3...Qe7, but those who know of this move tend to play better openings in the first place. 😛

Qr7, I always tought about Ne7 which put a nasty after qh5, but black get the advantage.

Do you mean 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 f6 3.Nxe4 Ne7 4.Qh5+ g6.

But, White doesn't have to play 4.Qh5+. Playing instead 4.Nf3 just leaves White up a pawn.
