RE: Missed great chess opening tactics
12.. Bxd5! 13 exd5 e4 14 Bxg7 exd3 15 Qxd3 Kxg7
On 14 Lxe4,14.. Lxb2 follows and the rook in the corner is trapped.
After 14..exd3, if 15 Lxf8, 15 dxe2 follows, the queen is threatened, and white has to recapture, leaving black a pawn up, with two pieces for the rook,effectively two pawns up.
It took me a while to see it.
Good job. :)
After his pawn b4 move I hesitated a little because I was kind of surprised by this move but I could not find the correct reply to this weakening move. And in a blitz game you always have the ticking clock at your back.
Or (12... Nxd5 13. exd5 e4 14. fxe4 Bxa1 15. Nbc3 Bxc3 16. Nxc3 Qe7 17. Bf4 Ne5 18. Qd2 f6 19. Bg3)
