Hi everbody! this is a blitz game I played vs. my computerized chess board at home. It features a miniature with a material winning attack. Then after the material that was defending the king is cleared,White makes Black's King die a swift death. This is why you must develop your pieces!
1. d4 Nf6 2. e3 d5
A Stonewall attack by a transposition of moves. White's ideal setup is pawns on c3,d4,e3,f4. Knights on d2 and f3 and a bishop on d3.

 
3. Nd2 e6 4. Bd3
The whole goal of the last 2 moves is to defend e4,the weakest point in the Stonewall.

 
4... c5 5. c3 c4
?! A dubious move,releasing all of the tension in the center and allows White to do as he pleases.

 
6. Bc2 Bd6 7. f4 O-O 8. Ngf3
I've achieved the Stonewall setup without any difficulty

 
8... Ng4
? Another bad move,losing a pawn to the tactic...

 
9. Bxh7+
! Black never saw this coming

 
9... Kh8
9...Kxh7 10.Ng5+ followed by 11.Qxg4

 
10. Ng5
who cares about pawns? I'm hunting a bigger prize...the enemy king!

 
10... Nxe3
The knight is very hungry and doesn't hesitate to take the helpless pawn

 
11. Qh5
! The king is suffocating. One Light-Squared bishop move and he is toast

 
11... Nxg2+
Ok either this knight is 1.Greedy 2. Fat 3. Selfish. Pawns are getting taken left and right,but hey,that's the price of winning

 
12. Kd1 Nxf4
"Pawns! Pawns! I love pawns!" the knight said

 
13. Qh4
All of the sudden Black is helpless. The king orders a scrambling move to save himself. Boy I want to see what happens when the knight was disobeying the king.

13... Qxg5
The Queen gives herself away to save the King. This was the only move to prevent mate. Unfortunately for the Black King,it happens sooner than expected...

 
14. Qxg5 Kxh7 15. Nxc4
! Why not win another pawn? The white knight was jealous of his counterpart =)

 
15... dxc4 16. Bxf4
The Bishop avenges his fellow pawns' deaths.

 
16... Bxf4 17. Qxf4
Let's take an assesment of the position. White is up a queen to a knight,bishop and pawn. The bigger advantage to White is that he is better developed than Black. The Queen is in a strong position and the Rooks are ready to pounce on the Black King

 
17... Nc6 18. Rg1
An innocent looking enough move right?

 
18... Bd7
alas,this is too little too late

 
19. Kd2
The rooks can see each other and become more powerful when conncected
