Apr-12-06  DAL9000: A crazy game. White plays as if he's under a hypnotic compulsion to throw away material.

Sometimes that results in amazing wins that will stand the test of time, but, uh... sometimes you end up with a completely lost position inside of 20 moves. Yikes.

  fredthebear: In the final position, White is down the exchange and has a hard time protecting his advanced, isolated pawns. White pays the price for not having castled.

Black gained a two pawn advantage with 13...Nxb4, a temporary sacrifice that maintains the pin and wins back the Nc3. Then Black's bishop pair become pests.
