Going over the game with Fritz was educational. Starting after White's 9th
move:
[d] r1bqkb1r/1p3ppp/p2ppn2/2n5/3NPP2/1BN5/PPP3PP/R1BQ1RK1 b kq - 0 8
9...Ncxe4
[9...Nfxe4 10.Nxe4 Nxe4 transposes yet rates as better in Fritz's book]
[9...Qc7! looks best]
10.Nxe4 Nxe4 11.f5 e5 12.Qh5 d5 13.Re1 Bc5 14.Rxe4 0-0?
[14...Bxd4+ 15.Rxd4 Qb6 16.c3 exd4 17.Qe2+ Kf8 18.Qe5 unclear]
15.Rg4 Bxd4+ 16.Kh1 e4?
[16...Kh8 17.Bxd5 g6 18.Qh6 Bxf5 19.Bg5 Bxg4 20.Bxd8 Raxd8
21.c3 Bc5 22.Bxb7 +=]
17.Bg5 Qd7 18.Rf1 Qb5 19.Rgf4 Bxb2?
