King’s Gambit, Last Chair in the Room

I sat down again and played until the position was real. This is that second sitting.

King’s Gambit. Last chair in the room.

rn1qkbnr/ppp2p2/3p4/7p/3PPBb1/5N2/PPP1B1P1/RN1QK2R b KQkq – 0 8

White took back on f4. The h-file is open. Black’s bishop sits on g4. Who owns the next check?

Jump to the rook lift. White’s rook hits h8 with check. Finish the count.

rn1qk2R/ppp2p2/3p4/6b1/3PPBp1/2N5/PPP3P1/R3K3 b Qq – 0 13

Is the king hunt real, or can Black still save wood? Play both sides. Name the miss.

I wish you the best of luck!!
