1. e3 e5 2. Qf3 f6 3. Nc3 c6 4. d4 exd4 5. Qe4+ Qe7 6. Qxd4 c5 7. Qd5 Nc6 8. Nb5 Qe5 9. Qxe5+ fxe5 10. Nc7+
a bad start...

 
10... Kd8 11. Nxa8 Nb4 12. Kd1 d6 13. a3 Nd5 14. e4 Bg4+ 15. f3 Nf4 16. fxg4 Nf6 17. Nh3 h6 18. g5
... which gets even worse...

 
18... Nxe4 19. g3 Nxh3 20. Ke1 hxg5 21. Bxh3 Rxh3 22. Be3 Nxg3 23. Rg1 Ne4 24. Bc1 Be7 25. b4 g4 26. Rxg4 Bh4+ 27. Ke2 Rxh2+ 28. Ke3 d5 29. Rxg7 Bg5+ 30. Kf3 Rf2+ 31. Kg4 Rg2+ 32. Kf5 Rf2+ 33. Kxe5 Bf6+ 34. Kxd5 Nc3+ 35. Kxc5 Ne4+
... but which ends with a nice recovery, especially this position where there is check and the bishop is attacking the two rooks at the same time!
