Fried liver attack

5... Bxf2+ 6. Kxf2
Again not recommended. Play is just too wild if white takes on f2 and white usually comes off worse

 
6... Nxe4+ 7. Ke3
Again not the best continuation. this just exposes the king to too much attacking combinations.

 
7... Qh4
Now white needs to make the correct move or he will be sorry.

 
8. Nxh8
??? Wrong move. Mate is now unavoidable.

8... Qf4+
Both Ke2 and Kd3 lead to mate. If Kd3 then Nb4+ Ke2 Qf2# If Ke2 then Qf2+ Kd3 Nc5+ Kc3 Qd4#

 
9. Ke2
White chosses the option that holds out longest

 
9... Qf2+ 10. Kd3 Nc5+ 11. Kc3 Qd4#
Hope you enjoyed this quick game. Played in one day :)
