Time to do something to take out more material with this move. The Queen is no longer needed except to go out with a bang. |

No choice for Black. |

There it goes in material. In the King's Gambit you either win right away or you get material and go after material.... |

One bishop or the other which? |

That one! |

The only place for the remaining bishop not taken and I think a good one. |

Black's Knights, as close as they are, are not in a position to do much.... |

I felt this was my only choice to get out of the possible fork... |

I expected him to do Nc4 but he did not. |

I have opp for more material and my King is safe from either Knight.... |

I can't allow the disclosed check from Bishop on g6... |

Only place I can go but Black is way behind already with a rook under attack... |

My King can take care of this anticipated promotion while Black's Knights are out of position.... |

Too late for that on Black's part no matter what. |

Bishop traded in for a rook.... |

I shift to the right side now. I put my remaining Knight where it is most useful. |

So Black trades. |
