The following game is a companion piece to the one presented in the previous column. It identifies the same theme: Black errs early, and White quickly recovers his sacrificed material for a clear advantage.
PedrosF1 - Vedant1997
10 0 blitz, lichess.org, 2021
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.Qh5+ Ke7
Black is shocked, or maybe just inattentive. In any event, White's chances quickly go from "wild attack might work" to "solid advantage".
The Database shows White scoring 85%, while the computer rates the attacker ahead by 6 1/2 pawns.
7.Qxe5+
Like in Percolator - vishnuvinod_13, 1 0 bullet, lichess.org, 2021 (1-0, 8), White will go on to collect the Bishop at c5 and be 2 solid pawns ahead.
