White's bishop has done it's duty on b4. Now it cuts off white's retreat to g3. |

No choice here, 14.Qe5 loses the queen and allows mate in one to 14... Qxe5, and 14.Kg5 is mated very similarly to the mate in the game. |

The queen covers the retreat along the light squares, the bishop controls the dark. There is no retreat. 14... Qd7 has the same purpose and is objectively equal. |

Ouch! This was a short game but I think it gives a very pleasant first taste of the portuguese gambit. I hope you enjoyed. As always, if you have any comments, criticisms or analysis please PM me. |
