  fredthebear: The White knights add the dynamics in this game. White invites a queen sac with 34.Ng4. If 34...QxQe2?? 35.NxBh6+ Kh8 36.Nf5+ Qh5 37.RxQh5+ Kg8 38.Rxg7#. Black declines this Q offer, but loses just as quickly.

In the final position, White is up a piece and is threatening to rob the pin with a semi-smothered Nf6#. The Black rook in the corner is also en prise.
