Kings gambit can lead to nice attacks on the kingside. Win on move 24- always satisfying. CAN YOU SPOT THE MATE IN 2 ON MOVE 19 that I missed. (Doubled rooks on the f file and a lsb pointing at f7 pawn can leave the opponent gasping. I learnt the Kings gambit only last month, still experimenting) |

castle early in Kings gambit, so I have learnt. If I can get rid of both pawns on the f file then rook is attacking f7- NOTE MY LSB IS ALSO POINTING THERE |

He had suggested - an even better double-whammy that ended the game in two moves: 19.Ne7 !!

always nice to have a rook on the 7th rank, moreover if I can get my queen over to g3 and attack him on g7 |
