The alternative is 8... Ne7 as in the consultation game, O'Shea, Whittaker and Bourke (White) v Creevey, Galvin and O'Dea, which continued 9. d4 c6 10. dxe5 Nf5 11. Be3 g6 12. O-O-O Bg7 13. Nxd5 Resigns.

9. Qe4 c6 10. d4 Nxc2+

A wild effort to free his position by returning the piece, In conjunction with his next move, however, it only helps to bring the end nearer.

11. Qxc2 exd4 12. Qe4+ Kd7 13. Nxd5 Bb4+

Neat, but to no avail.

14. Kd1

Quickest. It leaves Black with no resource. 14. Nxb4 Re8 15. Qxe8+ Qxe8+ with three pieces for the Queen.

14... cxd5 15. Qxd5+ Kc7 16. Bf4+ Bd6 17. Qc5+
