Yet, the nagging question also arises in the second player's mind: Who wants to lose to this junk? (Okay, so what do I do now?)
I think that helps explain the sudden end of the following game. It is as if Black, rated about 250 points above his opponent, realizes that he missed a move to finish off White, and decided: Phooey! I didn't really want to play this game, anyhow...

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.0-0 Nf6 6.Nxe5+ Nxe5 7.d4 Bxd4 8.Qxd4 Nc6
Black has a comfortable, better, winning position. Of course.
9.Qc4+ d5 10.exd5 Qxd5 11.Qe2 Re8 12.Be3 Kg8
More material, better development, safe King... yadda, yadda, yadda...
13.Nc3 Qe5 14.Rae1 Qd6 15.Nb5 Qd8 16.Rd1 Qe7 17.Rde1 a6 18.Qc4+ Qf7
Oh, rats! If I had played 18...Be6, it would be "Game over!"
Of course, it should have been "Game over!" after move 4, anyhow.
Why am I wasting my time on this game??
19.Qxf7+ Black forfeited by disconnection
(This might have puzzled White, who could see that after 19...Kxf7 20.Nxc7 Be6 21.Nxa8 Rxa8 he would have a Rook and two pawns against Black's two Knights, at best only a theoretical edge, if any.)
