Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-17-14  Karpova: This game was played on board 3 of the 2nd league of the Vienna team competition. Wögerer played for Hietzing, Fröhlich for Breitensee. The sacrifical attack is not entirely new, but still aesthetically pleasing. Spielmann points out that Wögerer was only 16 years old at the time of the game.

  tpstar: Fritz 10: 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Nf3 Ngf6 6. Bd3 b6 7. Qe2 Bb7 [last book move] 8. Ne5 Be7?? [hands over the initiative - 8 ... Nxe5 9. dxe5 Bxe4 10. Bxe4 Nxe4 11. Qxe4 Qd5 12. Qxd5 exd5 =] 9. Nxf7 Kxf7 10. Ng5+ Ke8 11. Nxe6 Qc8 [11 ... Qb8 cannot change destiny 12. Bf4 Kf7 13. 0-0 ] 12. Nxg7+ Kf7 [12 ... Kd8 is still a small chance 13. Ne6+ Ke8 ] 13. Qe6+ Kxg7 14. Qxe7+ Kg8 15. Bc4+ Bd5 16. Bxd5+ Nxd5 17. Qe6+ Kg7 18. Bh6# 1-0.

So the trade line with 8 ... Nxe5 leads to equality.
