zarathustra666: I see it! If 13)...Nxe5, 14)Nxe5, and if 14)...Qxe5, then 15)Bxd6+, forking the K and Q!!!

zarathustra666: I love this gambit against the Sicilian! In a recent game though, black threw me curveball with 1.e4,c5 2.d4,cxd4 3.Nf3, Nf6?! What's the best reply? 4.e5 to chase away the knight, 4.Bd3 top hold the pawn, or Nxd4?

zarathustra666: Thanks! That`s exactly what I wanted to know! God, how I wish Morphy had WRITTEN something about his games: I feel like I miss half of what`s going on in them!

zarathustra666: ok, I thought it had something to do with the bishop check. He makes this move in many games, but why don`t his opponents try it, I wonder?

zarathustra666: Doesn`t Morphy`s 5)...Bc5 leave him open to the `center fork` trick? 6)Nxe5, Nxe5 7)d4. I`m sure Morphy had somethng diabolical up his sleeve, but I just don`t see it...
